Overview

Electric Coffin is Coded within art history and ideologies from archetypes of mysticism.

Electric Coffin is a collaboration between Duffy De Armas and Stefan Hoffman. We explore found truths from modernity and a personal historical perspective. A process-driven studio practice and narratively informed dogma guide us, synthesizing perception through the use of created and found iconography and typography. We are inspired by a number of sources both material and ephemeral; sources encompass knowledge, culture, the physical remains of industry, mass production, communication, and commerce.
