Alter Ego,’ crafted by Diego Tirigall, is a striking 1 x 1 meter canvas that masterfully blends personal and corporate identity themes using a vibrant mix of mixed media. This work is both expressionist and figurative, centering on an enigmatic businessman in a suit and tie, adorned with symbolic and whimsical elements. Ears reminiscent of Mickey Mouse and rabbit ears introduce a playful duality, blurring the lines between professional decorum and childlike wonder—a nod to the street art influences that permeate Tirigall’s style. Innovative use of oil pastels and solid markers adds depth and texture, while spray paint and enamel provide a modern, urban finish. A prominent diamond, a signature feature in Tirigall’s work, offers sharp commentary on materialism and superficiality. The portrait’s lavish mouth, teeming with teeth and a protruding tongue, conveys bold, uninhibited expression. Words such as 'knowledge', 'drive', 'strength', and 'experience' float throughout, enriching the dialogue on power and self-awareness. ‘Alter Ego’ by Diego Tirigall challenges traditional views, presenting a visual conversation on the visible and hidden aspects of public and private identity, deeply rooted in the street art tradition.
