This is an installation work developed from the Butterfly Project. The issue of assimilation between individual beliefs and group beliefs is discussed from the perspective of the influence of group beliefs on individuals during the process of contact with social class groups. When individuals aspire and strive to integrate into a certain social class group, in the process their consciousness is unconsciously assimilated by the material and spiritual dimensions of the group, entering into a cycle of alienation of the self and assimilation of the other, eventually losing or hiding their true individuality. Indeed, the seemingly positive 'progressive' change becomes a virtual life of non-self.
