Star Wars Characters Square Off Against Luxury Brands In A Lego War

Star Wars Characters Square Off Against Luxury Brands In A Lego War

By Don Michael Acelar De Leon on January 17, 2012

Dale May, a photographer with a penchant for LEGO and Star Wars, brings together some of the well-known characters of the Lucas franchise and gives them an interesting makeover: May shoots his figures with a luxury brand theme. In “Lego Wars,” May puts together Darth Vader, C3Po and many other characters with Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Tory Burch logos to create square studies as large as 48 inches per piece.

From the Samuel Owen Gallery:

The LEGO WARS series is a photographic study of popular culture, commercial advertising and nostalgia. As an adult, Dale May revisits these tiny plastic Lego toys and photographs them in a way that returns them to the epic importance they once had as a child, reminding us why we needed to collect every single piece.
