* Abstract (approx. 100 words)
ﾒUtopiaﾓ is a novel artistic representation with an interactive visual experience. It consists of a painting that depicts an imaginary neighborhood in which all residents are living together, happily, and peacefully. The aim of ﾒUtopiaﾓ is to provide a viewer an interactive experience of appreciating a painting that is technically and semantically designed to represent an equal and borderless world. In order to create such an experience, in addition to conveying the Utopia's concept by illustrations such as people of all ages and descents, etc., we aspired to design and created a structure that induces the viewer's eyes on the whole painting ceaselessly and in a uniform manner. Thus, every painted element has an equal chance to be seen.
