Wearing crude, hand-made costumes , I stage in-studio performances of myself dressed as the adversaries Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. I use video compositing and drawing to combine the two costumed versions of myself. Each work in the series is entitled with a line of dialogue expressing fear or anxiety from the Star Wars films.
