Description

With Saber Lux , Mitch Richmond delivers a personal and poetic interpretation of Luke Skywalker's lightsaber. This patinated metal work doesn't seek to reproduce the object identically, but to capture its essence: that of a passage, a legacy, an object steeped in history as much as symbolism.

The patinated bronze treatment, with its dark and deep accents, gives this sculpture the appearance of a sacred, almost mystical object. The lines are clean yet powerful, alternating between soft curves and industrial rigor. Each detail—the hexagonal wheel, the regular grooves, the sculpted finish—evokes the link between ancient and future, between craftsmanship and technology, between myth and material.

By revisiting Luke's lightsaber, Richmond goes beyond a simple reference to Star Wars : he questions what it means to inherit, transmit, and transform a collective symbol into a unique, dense, and silent work.
