Digital materiality through an ever-shifting botanical ecosystem on blockchain where no single moment repeats itself. Herzog’s new work uses blockchain as a space where collectors are participants in the cultivation of living digital flora.
Nguyen Wahed presents Infinite Garden, a solo exhibition by Leander Herzog in New York. Beginning March 17, the standalone installation transforms the concept of digital materiality through an ever-shifting botanical ecosystem on blockchain where no single moment repeats itself. Herzog’s new work employs blockchain affordances as a creative medium, building a space where collectors become active participants in the cultivation of living digital flora – works conceived collectively through a smart contract. Each element exists in a state of perpetual evolution, responding to temporal conditions including diurnal cycles and seasonal progressions.
