Changes in Public confidence* in the economy seem dynamic, as if winds or air pressure are shifting. People also describe Recovery, Pessimism, or other inclination as" in the air." ¹ Likewise, a narrative spreads in the air and affects us in various ways, whether true or not. "Fort in the Air" is a video inspired by the true story of Chaeeun's mother with AI stock fraud. She collects audio footage and voice records between her mother and explores the theme of belief, from everyday life to true religions and the environment surrounding religions, like economy and society. "Fort in the Air" raises questions about the nature of belief in contemporary society and how it's created with different narratives from individual ideas.
