Renaud Marion dreams of flying cars. His Air Drive series are almost retro-style images celebrating at once the glorious days of the automobile and the futuristic transport of tomorrow.

Inspired by science fiction films and artists – the Star Wars landspeeder and soaring machines by French artist Moebius to name a few – here nine wheel-less hovercrafts, each based on a vintage classics, serenely float above the ground.

Marion began his creative career as an graffiti artist, taking to photographing his work to add permanence. Living in London he broadened his list of subjects to include people and architecture, later working in fashion and advertising in Paris.

A selection is on view at the at MAD Gallery in Geneva, Switzerland.
