St. Patrick, 2025

Pen on Chateau Marmont menu

Unique work

Drawn directly onto a Chateau Marmont menu, St. Patrick repositions a saint within the layered iconography of Hollywood mythology. With a few deliberate strokes of pen, Luke Haeger collapses centuries of religious narrative into a contemporary gesture—turning a relic of dining luxury into an unlikely devotional surface.

As in much of Haeger’s work, the collision of context and content is key. The sacred and the secular, the revered and the routine, coexist without resolution. St. Patrick isn’t a portrait—it’s a reframing. A saint rendered on a menu becomes a meditation on consumption, ritual, and the quiet absurdity of modern icon-making.
