Rat City

Rat City is an original painting by Deego, a singular hand-painted piece from Tampa Bay that reads like artwork first and decor never.

The Work

Light moves through the acrylic layers of Rat City, pulling grey, orange, yellow forward and letting others fall back.

The proportions do part of the talking. At 16 × 20 in, the work feels precise, edited, and easy to live with.

That vertical orientation gives Rat City a totem-like presence, especially useful when a narrow wall needs height instead of width.

The Artist

The hand here belongs to Deego, the artist name of Rodrigo Paiva, working from Tampa. No reproductions come from his studio — Rat City is a one-of-one, full stop. The acrylic surface carries warm oranges and yellows, built start to finish in Tampa.

Where It Belongs

The contemporary register of Rat City suits interiors with some character already built in. Its warm-leaning palette — warm oranges and yellows — holds up in daylight and evening light. The piece works in a Bay-area apartment or a design-led commercial interior.
