The ‘Art Wars’ exhibition at Saatchi Gallery features a bunch of Star Wars gear including the ‘StormOffSki’ helmet. Sci-fi hip-hop fans will rejoice over this studded Stormtrooper helmet by designer/artist Ben Moore.
The helmet is just one component of the Star Wars-themed exhibition, which also features floral and leopard-print Stormtrooper helmets. This particular version is encrusted with 6,000 Swarovski Xilion Rose Crystals. The helmet was created using the original moulds that were used to make the official helmets in the 1976 Star Wars film.
The actual Art Wars exhibit is not only for Star Wars enthusiasts, but in the process, the money raised will go toward the ‘Missing Tom’ fund; Ben’s brother Thomas went missing in 2003, and the proceeds from this exhibition will go toward raising awareness for Ben’s brother alongside the Missing People Charity.
