imaginary landscapes
Dreamscapes of nowhere
Imaginary landscapes are mental or artistic depictions of places that don't exist in the physical world—terrain conjured in dreams, paintings, literature, or fantasy.
The phrase appears in art criticism, psychology, and creative writing: The composer evokes imaginary landscapes through shifting harmonics.
It can also describe idealized or distorted perceptions of real places: Tourism brochures sell imaginary landscapes of paradise.
