ABOUT THE ART
The 2016 "Star Wars" Be@rbrick series exemplifies Medicom Toy’s mastery of transforming globally recognized characters into contemporary art objects. By applying "Star Wars" iconography onto the standardized Be@rbrick form, the figures strip each character down to their most essential visual elements—helmets, armor panels, control markings—while preserving immediate recognizability. The result is a striking balance between pop culture storytelling and modern design abstraction.
What makes this series particularly compelling is its cross-generational scope. Classic characters like Darth Vader, Stormtroopers, C-3PO, and R2-D2 appear alongside sequel-era figures such as Kylo Ren, reflecting Star Wars’ evolution across decades. The inclusion of the clear gold C-3PO introduces a sculptural, almost jewel-like quality, elevating the figure from toy to collectible art object and reinforcing Medicom’s roots in designer vinyl culture.
As a whole, the series functions as both homage and reinterpretation. These Be@rbricks are not meant to replicate cinematic realism; instead, they celebrate the graphic language of "Star Wars" through repetition, form, and surface design. Positioned within a gallery or curated collection, they stand as symbols of how entertainment franchises can seamlessly cross into the realm of contemporary art, where nostalgia, branding, and design intersect.
