utopia

Description

Utopia is the phantom paradise where no one has ever set foot. A social alchemy of perfection talked about by all, yet never implemented by anyone. It is like a museum of ideals where dreamers convene to ignore the inconveniences of reality. Everyone debates endlessly, only to leave everything unchanged, serving as a comfort blanket for collective anxiety. It is boarding a bus to nowhere, but one tells themselves it beats the crowded train of everyday life.
