Diego Tirigall
Instant Society - Basquiat Style, 2022

2022

About the Item

"Nestcafe Society" and Corporate Ideals A striking painting by Diego Tirigall prompts deep thoughts about the relationship between appearances and reality. The painting features a rough sketch of a well-known instant coffee brand logo with words "N3stcafe Society" beneath it. This serves as a powerful symbol of the illusions that society and corporate ideals can create. The Illusion of High-Quality Coffee The painting highlights the gap between the promise of high-quality coffee and the reality of mass-produced, preservative-filled coffee packaged in an industrial jar. The large axe that cuts through the words "N3stcafe Society" symbolizes the destruction of these false promises and the consequences of pretending to be something one is not. The red coffee jar, adorned with the classic symbol of justice, underlines the tension between convenience and authenticity. Warhol's Iconic Style The artist, Diego Tirigall, likely pays homage to Warhol's iconic style while also offering his own commentary on the subject. The use of a rough sketch of a logo, rather than Warhol's precise silkscreens, adds depth and complexity to the artwork and its message. The painting invites the viewer to consider the ways in which consumer choices shape society and values and the importance of embracing one's true self.

This work invites deep reflection on our digital age, depicting Astro Boy as a white specter, suggesting the loss of an authentic childhood now supplanted by the flickering lights of screens. This message of resistance against the omnipresence of digital technology is reinforced through Astro Boy's stance, akin to Michelangelo's David, an iconic symbol of resistance and humanity. This piece is part of Tirigall's "Cracking the Kids Code" series, reflecting his concerns about the growing role of technology in child-rearing. "Astro Boy" invites the viewer to contemplate the space screens...
