A utopia is a place defined by ideals. People have been striving to represent the idea for years, and in today’s society the concept is so heavily explored that it’s difficult to come up with something genuine and fresh. When seeking to represent utopia in my own photo project, I didn’t start with any specific notions about a complete package perfect world. Instead I just thought of a few ingredients to begin with – sunshine, nature, purity, color, and good friends- and worked forward from there. The project became a session of uninhibited childlike fun in the arb, which fit perfectly with what I think some important aspects of my utopia would be. These photos represent the fact that we can still find innocence and joy in simple things, without letting shame or concern for societal restrictions get in the way. That seems like happiness to me.
