Saeborg

• Born 1981 in Toyama, Japan
• Based in Tokyo, JapanSaeborg creates latex body suits as extensions of her own skin, deploying them in performances. Motivated by her strong desire to transcend fixed identities (such as gender) and even the human body itself, she dons bodysuits that caricature sows or insects as toy-like figures, creating playful dystopias composed of the ecosystem’s basest creatures. The lives of livestock—their procreative activity, the delivery of their offspring—are strictly managed, and then they’re sent off to the slaughterhouse. In Saeborg’s work, this world is portrayed with an innocent cheerfulness, resulting in a sense of irony. All of her pieces to present have been shown in international exhibitions and museums in both Japan and abroad, following premieres at the Tokyo fetish party Department-H.
