Darth Tie Figher
My Darth Vader and TIE Fighter Mash-Up Sculpture unites two icons of the Star Wars universe into a single work of mechanical storytelling and design fusion. Constructed from upcycled e-waste and found components, this piece explores the balance between structure and symbolism — blending Vader’s dark, commanding presence with the aerodynamic form of the Empire’s TIE Fighter.
Materials Used: Recycled materials such as: wire, keyboard keys, speaker wire, metal, resistors, ram, computer chips, data cables, adding machine keys, gears and other miscellaneous parts from adding machines, airplanes, and typewriters.
