About this Painting: In Diego Tirigall's artwork "Sweet Transformer," we are immersed in a world where the relationship between humanity and technology takes on an almost mythical dimension. The imposing robot figure represents the growing omnipresence and intrusion of artificial intelligence and technology in our lives. The painting explores the duality of technology through the incorporation of the word "Sugar" and critiques the influence of social media and advertising with "Like" and "ADS." The reference to "Proud Soup" on the robot's chest connects with Tirigall's "Unhealthy Preserves" series, addressing the obsession with social media and its harmful aspects. Additionally, the artwork's title alludes to the wordplay between the iconic transforming robots from the Transformers franchise and the cutting-edge Transformer technology developed by Google, which led to the creation of ChatGPT and other language models. The background of the artwork, filled with repetitions of the word "Please," evokes a desperate plea from humanity, which can be interpreted as a request for help from technology or a demand to halt its relentless advance. "Sweet Transformer" ultimately serves as a mirror for us to contemplate the challenges and dilemmas posed by artificial intelligence, technology, and social media in contemporary society.
