The Mandalorian in Brass, A Tribute to Star Wars A luminous and sculptural portrait of one of the most iconic figures from the Star Wars universe. No paint, ink, or print, the mysterious presence of the Mandalorian emerges purely through structure, shadow, and shine. From a distance, the silhouette is instantly recognizable. Up close, it dissolves into a golden rhythm, each nail reflecting light against a deep matte black acrylic background. Solid brass meets fragile acrylic glass, a combination of strength and fragility that reflects both the armor and the legend of the Mandalorian. The use of pure brass gives a warm, golden glow. Over time, the nails may develop a natural patina, a subtle, living finish that deepens the character of the work and ensures each piece becomes increasingly unique. Depending on the light, the portrait shifts in tone and dimension, sharp and sculptural from the side, soft and iconic from the front. This piece is part of the second collection of Art with Nails by Tijs Dragtsma, realized in a strictly limited edition of ten. Each artwork is slightly unique, but always part of the same vision. Framed in a handmade Dutch float frame in matte black wood with a brushed gold edge, and signed and numbered on the reverse, this work offers a contemporary homage to one of modern pop culture’s most legendary characters. About the Artist, Tijs Dragtsma Part of the Art with Nails series by Tijs Dragtsma, this work is created with a self-developed technique that transforms classic nail art into a bold, modern context. By focusing on pure materials and the interplay of strength and fragility, Dragtsma reimagines timeless icons with powerful presence.
