About the Artist
Rudy Diaz was born in the borderlands of El Paso, and moved there permanently with his parents at the age of 4. He attended art school and makes video games for a living. Diaz enjoys drawing and sculpture.
Artist Statement
“I enjoy creating things that make people laugh. Also, why not make them a little scared while I am at it? I try to bring a smile to my own face when drawing or sculpting the things I enjoy. Hopefully, the viewer will see a little bit of themselves in my art.”

Changarreando expands the reach of the artist by presenting their gallery online, while allowing the option to sell merch over Instagram and receive 100% of the sale.
Rudy Diaz featured his artwork on the Changarrito cart outside the Museum’s entrance on April 16 – 17 and 23 – 24, 2022.
