CIH X DAR: March Winds
Close isn’t Home X Digital Artist Residency: March Winds is a collaborative Residency project between Grace Kwon and Samantha Vassor of Close isn’t Home and Lina Deng, Kathy Guo, Lucia Nguyen, Alfred Marasigan, and Vanessa Opoku. Close isn’t Home wanted to take the opportunity within the Digital Artist Residency to connect with other individuals online and extend an open call invitation to other BIPOC people interested in similar digital art principles. Throughout the months of March and April of 2021, Close isn’t Home met with everyone individually to discuss their digital art ideas as it relates to identity, culture, and art accessibility in non-western traditions. Close isn’t Home: March Winds is a virtual 3D environment that focuses on ideas of transformation, seasonal shifts, our connections with objects as it relates to changing times, and the positivity that can accompany change.
