The only thing that would make this giant distorted iPhone 3G more impressive is if it actually functioned as a working iPhone. Aside from that lack of technology, I'm finding it hard to wrap my head around how amazing this twisting replica is. Perhaps I simply need to wrap it around me.
Created by Electroboutique, the giant distorted iPhone 3G is inspired by Tatlin's Tower. Encouraging discussions about art, design and consumerism, it explores their assertion: "Today we see companies claiming their products are art objects themselves; art has to re-define its role in the society again."
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Giant Distorted Sculptures
- Creating giant distorted sculptures of popular objects can be a disruptive innovation opportunity to explore new forms of art and design.
- Art as a Consumer Product
- The concept of companies claiming their products as art objects creates an opportunity for disruptive innovation in redefining the role of art in consumer society.

- Exploring the overlap between art and design can lead to disruptive innovation in creating unique and thought-provoking products.
Sectors Adopting This
- Art
- The art industry can capitalize on the trend of creating giant distorted sculptures to attract new audiences and redefine the boundaries of traditional art forms.
- Design
- The design industry has an opportunity to disrupt traditional design practices by incorporating art elements and blurring the line between art and design in consumer products.
