Iconography of Modernity

"Reality Soup" by Diego Tirigall, an artist celebrated for his vibrant Street Art and unfiltered expressionism, invites the viewer into a deeper visual dialogue beyond mere observation. At its core, a skull adorned with a tie confronts the ephemeral nature of life and delves into the complex relationship between personal identity and societal roles. The tie stands as a dual symbol, questioning whether it represents a chosen emblem of status or an enforced marker of conformity.

Satire of Consumption

In the series "Unhealthy Preserves", Tirigall reinterprets the familiar Campbell's soup can as a tool for social critique. More than just a consumer product, the can is portrayed as a vessel for the habits that internally consume individuals. Symbolizing social media addiction, it challenges the nourishment of our souls in a hyper-connected society, urging us to reflect on what we truly preserve in the digital age.
