Aches, real name Fergal Coghlan is a prominent artist from Ireland who has achieved international acclaim for his innovative approach to muralism and graffiti. Born and raised in Dublin, he began his creative journey in the early 2000s, initially focusing on traditional graffiti lettering before evolving his style into a complex fusion of digital aesthetics and physical street art. He is best known for his mastery of the additive color model, frequently employing a technique that mimics the sub-pixel structure of modern digital screens. By layering translucent streaks of red, green, and blue, he creates portraits and typographic works that appear to vibrate or glitch when viewed from different angles.

His work often explores the intersection of technology and human identity, challenging the viewer to reconsider how digital mediums distort or enhance our perception of reality. Despite the high-tech appearance of his murals, Aches executes these pieces entirely by hand using spray paint, demonstrating a profound technical skill in color theory and perspective. His large-scale installations can be found in major cities across the globe, including London, New York, and Copenhagen, yet he remains deeply connected to the Irish art scene. He frequently participates in local festivals and projects that aim to revitalize urban spaces through public art. By blending classical portraiture with modern visual distortions, Aches has established himself as a leading figure in the evolution of street art, bridging the gap between historical painting techniques and the rapid pace of the digital age.
