United Federation of Utopias for One (UFO) was an art installation by Jessee Lee Johns in the basement of the Princess Theatre building on the corner of Leake and Market streets. From the Fremantle Festival website:
Co-founder and director of the Contemporary Institute of Modern Art (CIOMA), WA’s most intangible art institution that you’ve never heard of, Jessee Lee Johns will create an embassy for a fictional island nation situated off the coast of Australia. This United Federation for One will be an island for solo habitation; a country for one, with visas to visit the island being issued at the embassy. There are currently no boats or planes servicing the island, so access will have to be negotiated with the artist.
United Federations of Utopias for One is supported by the State Government through the Department of Culture and the Arts.
