Diego Arellano

Born and raised in Peru but based in London since 2010, Diego has been working with words for more than 20 years as a journalist, advertising copywriter, short stories writer and printmaker.

His prints are comedy driven because, as an Arsenal supporter, he has a dry sense of humour. Diego only makes editions of 19 of each of his print work. He doesn’t know why. 

My mother used to love football. I was born nineteen days after the end of the World Cup in 1982. I was named one of the 50 Brand Pioneers by JWT Worldwide in 2009. I got a Flip Video camera as a reward. Neither exists any more.
