Diogo Rustoff, from Goiânia, Brazil. Graduated in Graphic Design from the Federal University of Goiás.

Since 2006, the work has moved between the studio and the street. Painting, drawing, wheatpasting, and stenciling. On the street, characters are scattered across the walls—an imaginary population that occupies various corners of the city at the same time. In the studio, the investigation starts with collage, acrylic paint, and whatever is available to explore memory, archives, and the boundaries between reality and fiction. The most recent research deals with information manipulation, confirmation bias, and post-truth.

My work also includes illustration and editorial design for clients such as Fifth Estate, Monstro Discos, MMarte Produções, Mandinga Records, Lambes Brasil, Valenta Arte Urbana and Sertão Negro, Prefeitura da Cidade São Paulo, CULTSP PRO.

His resume includes four solo exhibitions, notably at the Goiânia Art Museum (2011), Vila Cultural Cora Coralina (2021), and INNart in Guangzhou, China (2025). He has participated in urban art festivals in São Paulo and Buenos Aires. His work is featured in the book The Stencil Graffiti Handbook by Tristan Manco. He also organized Lambesgóia, a wheatpaste graffiti festival that has brought over 200 artists from 15 countries to the walls of Goiânia.

The Artista Operário newsletter, published every two weeks, shares the creative process in the form of a chronicle.
