With everything on the line award winning artist Jeremy Dean creates the first true custom hybrid car. A contemporary and truly innovative design that combines the best of modern car features with the gas mileage and driving experience of a lifetime - the “Futurama” series is destined to be a collectors favorite. The concept for the “Futurama” series combines the traditional focus on function and horsepower in early modes of transport with the car industries’ advancements since. Part car - part carriage, this line of eight proposed converted vehicles juxtaposes the history of the automobile, developments of the car industry, current moment of automotive market crisis and the individual’s ability to be driven to create in order to meet means. Dean’s vehicles reference horse drawn carriages which are no longer primary transport for aristocratic elite, the once glorious now gratuitous SUV culture of recent past, and the jalopies that were a bi-product of the Depression.
