Our sense of belonging to a culture gives us a sense of identity, but I've discovered that in the face of a dominant culture, my ability to adapt to this new culture is so strong that I easily subconsciously abandon my past and the culture I come from. The moments in which I make choices and sacrifices in terms of culture and identity make me feel afraid and unsettled.
Art Camp is a homesome virtual art residency and a bi-monthly gathering, an alternative to our many missing social art events.  
Here I made my grandfather's study in VR and invited my Chinese friends to come in and share our feelings of being between cultures. It is also the place where I store the traditional Chinese culture that I learned from him when I was a child. In the study room, my grandpa is telling the famous mythology in my hometown Hangzhou, White Snake, which tells the story of a snake breaking worldly prejudices with love and beauty.
