Art, Elegance, and Unrivaled Flavor in Every Pour.

Embark on the journey of Dutch-made Bong Spirit vodka, encapsulated in the iconic one-liter, bong-shaped glass bottle—an artistic testament to both form and flavor. As a contributor to the exclusive artist series, I had the privilege of adding my touch to this limited-edition lineup. Distilled six times, charcoal-filtered four times, and rooted in a 150-year-old recipe, this premium liquor promises a smooth finish and has garnered top-tasting awards. Tailored for young, liberally-minded enthusiasts,
Bong Spirit vodka collaborates with artists to infuse each bottle with unique designs, launched by Jimi Beach in 2008. The limited-edition bottles, randomly packed like hidden treasures, create an element of surprise and collectability. Beyond its visually stunning exterior, Bong Spirit vodka beckons to be savored in a cold martini or seamlessly integrated into your favorite vodka cocktails.

The Inspiration

BONG-GETA-SHOE-sm

"The Journey of Life," a piece from my first solo gallery exhibit, captures a profound perspective on human existence. It portrays a sumo wrestler suspended in mid-air, clutching a string of helium balloons. Created in 2001, this artwork explores life's journey and the illusion of control. Despite our efforts and choices, we find ourselves on a string of balloons, symbolizing the vulnerability of our aspirations. The piece reflects the futility of trying to manipulate our destinies, urging viewers to embrace the journey amid life's unpredictability. It's a visual meditation on the delicate balance between pursuing dreams and surrendering to the unpredictable dance of existence
