Sarah Meyohas

Sarah Meyohas is a conceptual artist and technologist whose practice provides an intelligible visual language to articulate the systems and complex operations that increasingly govern our world. Her work has been collected and exhibited at major institutions such as the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the ICA in London, and the New Museum in New York.

She is represented by Marianne Boesky Gallery as well as the United Talent Agency for her work in film. Meyohas creates artworks that engage philosophically and technically with emerging technologies ahead of widespread adoption. In 2015, she created Bitchcoin, a cryptocurrency backed by her physical artwork, which predated the launch of Ethereum and is the first tokenization of physical art on a blockchain.

Similarly, her project Stock Performance (2016) emphasized the individual’s gesture on a market akin to more recent meme-stock trends. Her 2017 project Cloud of Petals involved training a Generative Adversarial Network on a dataset of 100,000 physical rose petals to generate endless, new, and unique petals, both in video installations and virtual reality experiences.

Her recent work explores holography and plotters to create pieces that delve into the mechanics of perception and texture. Meyohas's practice embodies the concept of Gesamtkunstwerk, a German term meaning a "total work of art", seamlessly integrating art, technology, and finance.
