For Alter, Orilo took hold of Vevey by propping approximately 30 of his alter egos in surprising postures: atop a tree, a street lamp, a church tower or scaffolding. The street artist plays with his life-size figures in the urban environment to create a gallery of comical characters. As viewers look up, they discover an astonishing and dizzying collection of characters such as a painter, biker or basketball player, in the most incongruous spots around the town.
