Walking through the streets of Jinze, Shanghai, Anne Mølleskov wore a canvas dress transformed into a mobile gallery of forest photographs, creating a transient, autonomous art platform that moved freely through public space.

Gallery Go, a walking performance at Jinze Village, Shanghai, China, 2018.
While working as an artist in residence at 
Untitled Space 空间题空间 (now known as Acentric Space®无央空间), Anne Mølleskov explored themes of landscape, territory, and belonging. She brought a white canvas typically mounted on stretchers for painting; however, instead of producing a traditional landscape, she cut and assembled it into a simple, wearable dress, intended to be worn “while walking out into the landscape.” Functioning as a mobile gallery, the dress displayed photographs of forests in Shanghai, sourced from both printed material and direct observation. The performance-based exhibition unfolded while walking through the streets of Jinze in April 2018 and lasted approximately one hour.
The work also addressed the conditions of a global nomadic artist, whose practice often involves navigating applications, permissions, and institutional networks. Gallery Go was conceived as an autonomous art platform—more mobile and lightweight than Mølleskov’s earlier nomadic white canvas works, including a tent and a “picnic blanket.” Designed to be highly transitory, it could move freely across territories, borders, and bridges, recalling earlier forms of movement through forested landscapes. The platform required no approval or censorship; if questioned by authorities, the artist would simply respond, “I am just walking around in my new dress.”
