WHAT IS MY UTOPIA?

LIST OF THINGS I CALL MY UTOPIA.

Okay, so 'Utopia', according to its definition and the root of the word, utopia doesn't exist anywhere. It is just an ideal place. BUT NO PLACE.

At this stage what I want to propose, is that I want to tell people that they can actually find their utopia. It'll be only your 'own' utopia, but still you can be in very ideal status of yours. For example, this morning after I took a shower, I sat on my chair and drying my hair, naked. This warm air blown from the machine comes around all over my body, and drying my hair that some of waters falling to my knees. From last night, I was trying to figure out things that I call versions of my utopia, it was one of them.

So I realise that utopia comes from very personal experience and preference but if you think about it, there is one thing in common between people's utopia. You want to be in total peace.

Being at peace.

So peace of your mind?
Inner peace.
Restfulness, harmony, balance, equilibrium, longevity, justice, resolution, timelessness, contentment, freedom, fulfillment.

Okay, going to too much philosophical words. What was my utopia and a peace of mind when I was in Barbican? Where did I feel most comfortable that I want to exist here in this particular space more than anywhere else?
