The Daily Program Presents: → "The Harvest" by @littlecakes
A series of playful, eerie neo-folktales where strawberries, ritual, and luck shape a living mythology of care, mischief, death, and rebirth.
→ littlecakes is a thinly veiled alias. She is a Japanese woman living in the West. Her work using AI explores her experience as a native to both cultures, nostalgia, imagined folklore, and creating her own special space somewhere between sticky, messy, sweet, nightmarish, and the paranormal.
🍓 The Harvest unfolds as a neo-folktale, told through a richly segmented video installation. Shifting visual styles mirror the rhythms of a variety show, sustaining the artist’s collage-based approach. Set in a mythical world where strawberries are carefully grown, tended, and transformed into gifts, the work follows hooded caretakers and pink, fairy-like beings through cycles of nurturing, humor, mischief, death, and rebirth.
The Harvest launches on Tuesday, April 14, 2026 at 1PM ET.
