project four: utopia

Utopia is an imagined state where everything is perfect, with the stress on imagined. However, as soon as imagination becomes reality, it loses its ethereal qualities and naturally develops both positive and negative aspects. I set out to shoot a whimsical little world where inanimate objects could move around by themselves, as if they were sentient beings. I thought it would be incredibly useful if objects moved around, were helpful and did what they were supposed to do on their own. While I was in the process of shooting however, I couldn't stop thinking about just how annoying and aggravating this situation could be as well. If objects did what they were supposed to do, then how would they know they were overstepping some sort of boundaries?
