Infected Dingo “Wormland Edition”

The first Dingo that became the canvas of Yota’s minimal, narrative art was created in early 2013. Gifted by Yota to Atmizone as a symbol of the interesting dialogue between the fine arts and industrial design, the colourful, now-infamous device managed to spark a lot of internal discussion about its symbolism and visual vs. functional value. Eventually, it was embraced and loved warmly for what it truly represented:

“A design, even if it’s made in millions, used every day, admired, defaced, or even copied, carries with it the same emotional, cultural and deeply personal weight as a unique work of art.”

Yota, a long-time Atmizone fan and one of the Team’s favourite contemporary local artists, created a handful of these Dingos during the second half of 2013. Her simple, primitive forms and colours are more than just a style – they form a narrative. Look closely and you might be able to see trees, animals and people, a world of shapes arranged to make up a meaningful story. Many of these Dingos were monochrome adaptations of the original one, created by painting or engraving only the outlines of its forms. Although fully-functional, these works of art were kept on display and replaced by a tiny batch of durable, machine-engraved adaptations: The first “Infected Series” Dingos.

In total, less than 40 of these machine-engraved and serial-numbered Dingos have been produced. All consist of original, top-grade Dingo SS-M and SS-P parts, including rhodium-plated springs and connectors. The acrylic-painted originals are currently not available for sale.

The Infected Series will be occasionally expanded by Yota to include more devices and different artwork, always in one-off, super-limited runs. Check the section below for availability and prices.
