The Utopian Space is not a clear image of the perfect world. It can be just the thought that other ways of living in this world is possible. It can be an idea with one foot in everday-life-reality and one foot in the reality of the dream. It’s the space in-between. The gaps between reality as we know it and the fixed dream. You can move within them but you don’t know exactly how they work. In that space there is a power, a happiness, a curiosity. It’s a utopian space with no boundaries. The utopian space is a place to watch, to listen, to talk, to think, to dream, and to ignore the boundaries and the answers.
