Star Wars as Medieval Religious Art

I recently came across a link to some art by Chey Chao that took Star Wars and framed it in the context of Medieval art. Not only is the art interesting, but since Star Wars drew heavily from various mythological sources, has become a mythology in its own right, and provides the basis for the spirituality of Jediism, this combination of Medieval religious art forms and Star Wars is intriguing on a number of levels. See the complete series of work at BuzzFeed.

For examples of other art that connects science fiction to religion see the work of Jeff Carter .
