2017 – 1 Movement – Duration: 12 minutes
Description: I have always been obsessed with flying cars—especially those from the science fiction future of the 1950s. In this whimsical piece, I imagined a little spaceship that runs out of fuel and must land on a strange planet for a refill. Soon, it continues on its merry way.
