90’s KID
90’s KID – DAMAin is from the 90’s as you can see from the art-bottle. You will find the cartoons that DAMAin remembers from his childhood on the bottle as decoration.
First of all, we introduce Otto from Rocket Power. He is by far the favorite cartoon of DAMAin as he continues to explain that DAMAin used to wish that he could be Otto one day. Because of Otto, DAMAin started wearing specific clothes, shoes and started to skate with a scooter against common believe in that time where most people in the neighborhood were only skateboarding on the streets. Otto inspired him to be the first and only one at the time leaving skateboarding for skating on a scooter.
We can also find Timmy Turner. Never the favorite cartoon of DAMAin but looking back this was his only option to watch when he got back from school. Therefore, every day DAMAin is reminded on Timmy Turner as a daily routine.
Next on the list is SpongeBob, this one actually has a funny story to it. DAMAin used to watch SpongeBob laugh out loud in the series but this led to frustrations of his mother. Eventually his mother told him that she did not want him to watch SpongeBob anymore. Still, SpongeBob remains one of DAMAin’s favorite cartoons. Especially because of the fact that SpongeBob always made his famous Crabby Patty in the special smiley form. At a very young age, DAMAin was very persistent in what he believed and wanted to do or watch.
On the box of the art-bottle, you will see all the names of the cartoons in different handwriting by DAMAin. In addition, there will be a character designed by DAMAin himself placed on the box. After all, from the 90’s DAMAin started to love drawing the cartoons he grew up with. This resulted in creating the crazy family characters of which you can find the first character on your box.
CHUMALOCO010
CHUMALOCO010 – This bottle is made by DAMAin in collaboration with one of his best friends. It was the first episode of the Pure Iceberg series, in which DAMAin is in search of the stories behind the successes of the chosen Icebergs.
The hammer on the front of the bottle refers to his friend that is a scaffolding builder. This hammer has brought this Iceberg a lot. The Gucci logos are remarkable to this Iceberg as this appears to be his favorite brand. DAMAin also brought some of this Icebergs favorite cartoons to life on the bottle. You will find Plank, Dragon Ball-Z and Avatar and he used the name Chumaloco010 to personalize the bottle as this is the name this Iceberg uses on the PlayStation.
Finally, you can see the mountains that refer to Austria. This Iceberg has been skiing from when he was only a child and he goes all out on the snow slope in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladiss.
Eventually, you will also see some of the details such as the Gucci logo and name Chumaloco010 back on the box in DAMAin handwriting.
Crazy family
Crazy family – This complete art-bottle consists of DAMAin-characters. Each character is uniquely designed by DAMAin using his personal style. What is crazy about it is that these characters grew up with DAMAin in his head. These are exactly the characters he drew over and over again in his notebook at school from a young age. From mathematics to geography, the characters followed him all the way and are now presented to you on this bottle. Still, the characters are drawn in the same manner and will never be identical to each other when each time DAMAin draws like he used to do at school. Recognizable for these characters are the eyes, lips and the color of the hair. Don’t get confused by the anatomy of the figures, these characters are not identified as ordinary people.
Crazy heroes
Founding fathers’ part #1 – The three DAMAin characters on this art-bottle are created from the world-famous superhero’s Spiderman, Captain America and Batman. For this reason, we refer to part #1 because these heroes are de founding fathers of the Crazy Family. Despite the fact that the first drawings of the founding fathers are unique, DAMAin aims to create a more unique design to represent these heroes in the DAMAin style. Captain America will grow into Captain Crazy of the Crazy Family. The heroes will be further developed like DAMAin will develop himself.
Also, this is the first time that DAMAin is signing the art-bottle. DAMAin does not intend to do this in the traditional way but uses his creativity. This same odd way of signature we can clearly see back in the more is more collection.
Got cake?
GOT CAKE? - You can tell by the name that this bottle is designed for women. When you are proud of your buttocks and allow yourself to show it off, this bottle is yours. The curves of a woman are what make them the most feminine and DAMAin cannot get enough of it. DAMAin agrees that curves are very feminine. It is sexy and attractive but DAMAin focusses on the strength that women have that cannot be compared to men. This is a different power of women. Besides obviously the ability to keep the family together, they can perfectly create desire. Every time DAMAin is drawing the buttocks of a women, it is a tribute to the beauty and power of women.
On this bottle, you will see a DAMAin signature in the DAMAin handwriting. Also, there are DAMAin bills on the bottle. Not showing old presidents or kings but again buttocks.
J8
J8 – This is an artist that DAMAin met during the recordings of the second episode of Pure Icebergs. This artist is a two-stars Michelin chef with his own restaurant in Switzerland. This restaurant is called Sense. The flag of Friesland is on the bottle because J8 originally comes from Friesland. You will also find other recognizable elements from the life of J8. The logo of Harley Davidson is on the bottle, because J8 enjoys driving his Harley in the beautiful mountains of Switzerland. Then there is the golden logo, which is the logo of the chef that refer to his name Jeroen Achtien. Important to notice are also the favorite ingredients of Jeroen to create dishes with, namely: Langoustine, Foie Gras and Broccoli. In the DAMAin handwriting you also see the names of the first restaurants and of course the favorite cartoons of Jeroen Achtien: Tom and Jerry, the Smurfs and Johnny Bravo.
You will find these cartoons also on the box that carries the bottle in combination with several tags in DAMAin handwriting.
Spidersh*t
SPIDERSH*T – At first sight, this art-bottle might scare you off but when you look closely you can see how well detailed it is. The spiders refer to one of DAMAin’s heroes: Spiderman. This reminds DAMAin of his grandfather because they watch it together for the first time. His was a respected man by DAMAin and used to tell him to persevere and never give up.
Because of the pattern in the uniform of Spiderman, it is very complicated to create the character and difficult to master the design. Spiderman is not easy and time after time attracting DAMAin because it reminds him of his grandfather, who partially grew up in Indonesia, fought with the marines in New Guinea and later kept on working until his retirement. Despite of such a difficult life, DAMAin admires him because he is still never giving up and helpful to others. Spiderman, difficult to make perfect but never give up!
On the box, you will find the Iceberg tag in DAMAin handwriting. This handwriting is designed by DAMAin and is recognizable for his work. In addition, both the founding fathers and the identical DAMAin eyes are presented on the box. Both are signature characteristics of the DAMAin art and DAMAin characters.
