Upper Playground Presents:
Deniol Alva Capsule Collection
Upper Playground is always excited to be able to find new, talented and relatively unknown artists and give them an outlet for their work. So, this week Upper Playground is releasing a capsule collection containing four tees from Deniol Alva, a young artist with a unique and lively style out of Mexico City. He calls this collection the “Fresh Policy Series” which features politicians like Mao, Nelson Mandela, Joseph Stalin and Yasser Arafat dropping out of their boring everyday duties and enjoying the delights of common life. All four t-shirts are available at all Upper Playground retail locations and online at the Upper Playground online store.


Deniol Alva - Born in Mexico City, Deniol’s style consistently incorporates colorful and humorous tales of street characters and an ironic perspective on society. His style is richly influenced by the vividness of Mexican cartoonists, and the commentary of punk music like The Clash, Rancid and NOFX.
