A FLORAL VALENTINES SURPRISE
Floraforms
Set against the backdrop of one of the world’s great art institutions, FloraForms bridges heritage and generative art. Collaborating with Vienna’s Belvedere Museum—home to Klimt’s The Kiss— we offered 10,000 algorithmically generated artworks as a Valentine’s Day free mint.
“When we lived in Vienna, we would walk through the Belvedere’s gardens every week. As admirers of Gustav Klimt’s work and legacy, FloraForms became our way of giving back. It was a chance to connect with this wonderful city again and perpetuate some of the greatest art in the world.”

GUSTAV KLIMT’S THE KISS REIMAGINED
HOMAGE TO THE KISS
Roots in Klimt’s ornamental use of gold, mosaic-like florals, and Japonisme motifs are reinterpreted through algorithmic rules. Each flower inherits the emotional tapestry of The Kiss and blooms anew as a living digital memory.
SEND FLOWERS
The 10,000 digital flowers were offered for free on February 14, 2024, a symbolic gesture of generosity in keeping with the tradition of Valentine's Day. The collection is an open invitation to celebrate love, beauty, and cultural continuity.
FLOWER’S EVOLUTION
The collection features a dynamic mechanic: if you hold a double (two identical blooms), you can evolve one into an “Evolved Double”; the same applies to triples and quads, becoming Evolved Triples or Quads. This mechanic is a metaphor: love evolving, deepening, and transforming through connection.
A MUSEUM PREMIERE
FloraForms is an historic first. The Belvedere Museum opened its doors for a private Valentine’s soirée in Vienna. Select collectors posed in front of The Kiss, creating a living tableau bridging Klimt’s most iconic piece and our digital blooms. It marked the first time a major institution publicly welcomed Art on Bitcoin.
