Hiroki Tsukuda, who created the painting that served as the key visual for this exhibition, had the following to say about his artwork.
If you ask me which Star Wars character is my favorite, there are too many to choose from, but I would have to say Darth Vader. There are too many to answer, but Darth Vader is exceptional. Darth Vader is a symbol of good and evil, life and death, parents and children, and everything in between. I am honored to be able to depict such a Darth Vader this time.
-Hiroki Tsukuda
