As part of 3:e våningen’s GIBCA extended exhibition program, NSFW/SVILOVA will be presenting Gross Motor Skills, a solo show by Taiwanese-American artist Sabrina Chou.
In Gross Motor Skills,Sabrina Chou outlines an ambivalent space of logistics. Referencing logistics and its history as a term for the activity of organizing, equipping, and moving troops, the exhibition offers a terrain through which we can circulate ourselves amidst other sausage-bodies, fragmented architectures, and the sundries of a poorly-equipped mobile military corps.
Gross Motor Skills gleefully confronts the increasing use of artificial intelligence to advance logistics across supply chains, data analysis, moving people, and more. Even as our intersubjectivities dissipate into quantifiable data-byte-bites, laboring bodies still need to eat. Yes! All we’ll have left is our bodies.
Sabrina Chou is an artist from Los Angeles, California currently living and working in London. Her research and work address apparatuses and infrastructures that support, enable, or demand the circulation of desire through a dismembered social body. She holds a doctorate in practice-led art from the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford, and she received her MFA from the Piet Zwart Institute and her BA in Visual and Environmental Studies from Harvard University.
