DAMAR it is what connects nature with our deepest being
DAMAR born from the desire to share a passion for the sea and everything it offers us. We see and feel the sea as an essential part of cleansing, healing, a connection with nature and our deepest selves. For us it is a way of thanking, honoring and sharing everything that the sea offers us. We believe in the simple pleasures of life, and in the simple life, and we think that saving the sea and the planet may be easier than we think; just give love
​
From a passion, fishing, we began to generate prints based on an ancient Japanese technique-gyotaku; which means: gyo-fish and taku- rub. It is a technique used by fishermen who wanted to keep track of their catches, and little by little it became an art. It is made with squid ink, so that you can easily clean the fish and eat it later.
​
In 2020, as a society, we all experienced difficult situations that forced us to leave our comfort zone, to see beyond what is established. Damar arises from this moment of looking for another alternative, an art that became therapy. DAMAR was our life saver. He gave us motivation, inspiration, and above all love. Sometimes the most challenging situations make us appreciate what we have in front of us, like the sea and everything it has to offer. The sea gave us life, love and peace in those moments of chaos.
We seek to honor all of this through the art of DAMAR.

​A partir de una pasión, la pesca, comenzamos a generar impresiones a base de una técnica antigua japonesa- gyotaku; que significa: gyo-pez y taku- frotar. Es una técnica utilizada por pescadores que querÃan tener registro de sus capturas, y poco a poco se convirtió en un arte. Está hecho con tinta de calamar, para poder limpiar fácilmente el pescado y poderlo comer después.​
Y asÃ, podemos disfrutar de la pesca.

​En 2020, todos como sociedad, vivimos situaciones difÃciles que nos forzaron a salir de nuestra zona de confort, a ver mas allá de lo establecido. Damar surge a partir de este momento de buscar una alternativa más, un arte que se volvió terapia. DAMAR fue nuestro salvavidas. Nos dio motivación, inspiración, y sobre todo amor. A veces las situaciones más retadoras nos hacen valorar lo que tenemos enfrente, como el mar y todo lo que tiene para ofrecernos. El mar nos dio vida, amor y paz en esos momentos de caos.
Buscamos honrar todo esto por medio del arte de DAMAR.
