Info
Damn Stuff is an art & research project by Irma Díaz started in 2017 in Mexico. Inspired by street art, people, and the objects that surround human life, we experiment and create illustrations, stickers, murals, and printed or hand-drawn apparel.
Our work
We mix the Arts & Crafts movements with sustainable design, creating illustrations, murals, stickers, and screen-printed or hand-drawn apparel designed to give your surroundings a much-needed cool style.
Our goal is to put some Punk Funk stuff into existing stuff. Matter cannot be destroyed: it can only be transformed. Believe it!
Our mission
We believe that one Man’s trash is another man’s art project, and we want to help that Man who’s trashing stuff to turn his rubbish it into a hobby where his mental health and creativity are good for the planet and for him/her to make him feel and look cool.
We’re obsessed with encouraging fellow creative humans to stop overthinking and start doing stuff, reclaiming their creativity, and DREAMING BIG!
Disclaimer
We try to use reused materials and upcycling because the planet deserves better, and "new" is overrated anyway.
In some cases, we choose to use new stuff because not everyone is used to the "secondhand" options. However, our ultimate goal is to exclusively utilize recycled, repurposed, and reused materials.
About Irma
Once upon a time, she was nicknamed "Larva," a name that has stuck with her, even used by her dad. Irma Larva is a Mexican illustrator and designer based in Munich, Germany. She has a deep and obsessive love for the color orange.
She’s deeply curious about life and how matter functions and how it fills the spaces of humanity through self-expression.
When Irma is not doodling or taking professional naps, she's helping create visual design and branding for the websites or advertising of cool storytellers and lifestyle brands.
Punk, movies, graffiti, BMX, traveling, fashion, longboards, physics, warm drinks, good food, and now surfing are her favorite things.
Family and friends are her most important stuff.
Why the name?
Matter, also known as "stuff," is any substance that has mass and occupies space. Everything on Earth, including your notebook, your trash, and your cozy sweater, is made of matter. This includes all the stars and planets in the universe as well.
Damn, that's pretty cool, right?
Did I answer your question?
