Description

In Infinite Petals, Sarah Meyohas continued her long-running engagement with AI and blockchain technologies as both artistic medium and subject matter.

The collection—which consists of 3,291 unique videos minted as ERC-712 tokens—riffs on an important earlier work by Meyohas. For Cloud of Petals (2017), the artist hired 16 men to photograph 100,000 petals from 3,291 roses at the former Bell Labs in New Jersey, a historically significant site of technological innovation. Among the project’s outputs was a dataset for training GANs (a form of generative AI) to produce virtual petals.

In 2025, Meyohas returned to this dataset, training a StyleGAN model to generate sequences of continuously morphing petals arranged in grids. Meyohas chose the GAN over more widely used generative diffusion models because, as she has explained, it is able to “learn more deeply from less data,” creating smoother interpolation between forms.

Drawing on a popular trend in NFT marketplaces, the stop-motion videos of the petals are differentiated according to their various traits. These include the grid sizes (here, we have 2 by 2, 5 by 5, and 10 by 10), video duration, petal colors and sequences, and occasional glitch effects.
