Deva States

Founded in Indonesia on December 2015 by Theo Kusuma and Mol Edrin, two friends with mutual interests in graphic and t-shirts. The name Devá is adopted from Sanskrit, one of the most ancient language in Indonesia, which translates to; the shining one, divine or anything of excellence. Devá is inspired by a diverse range of references, issues and disciplines. Art movements from different times, philosophies and social phenomenons are recurring subjects of our works. A cornucopia of visual stimulants that we try to translate into graphic, colors and textures. Devá States essentially is referencing to balance and the traditional Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, celebrating the beauty in imperfection.
