What would you do with a lot of losing lottery tickets? Probably throw them away. But not if you’re an artist…
Brooklyn-based artists Adam Eckstrom and Lauren Was collected $35,000 such tickets and built a car. And not a Smart or a Mini - it is a Hummer H3.
Beside looking very cool, the piece, called “Ghost of a Dream,” also has a message behind it. Was and Ecktrom came up with the idea when they realized that most people think of buying a car when they dream about winning the lottery - hence the name of the project. They also wanted for the paper Hummer to contain the value of a real working Hummer, and they succedeed.
