Moved by the Motion is a group of interdisciplinary artists who work with a spectrum of mediums including language, movement, image, and sound.[1][2][3]

The Moved by the Motion group started in 2013. Membership is fluid, beginning as two or three people and now around seven or eight. Wu Tsang is a member of the group, referring to the arrangement as similar to a band.[2] Opening in January 2022, Moved by the Motion installed an experiential sound installation at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art that will remain up until June 2022.[4][5] The members participating in the 2022 SFMOMA installation are: Asma Maroof, Tapiwa Svosve, Patrick Belaga, Fred Moten, Serpentwithfeet, Tosh Basco, Ahya Simone, Daniel Pineda, and David Quam.[4] In 2022, it was announced that Moved by the Motion will participate in the 2022 Whitney Biennial curated by Adrienne Edwards and David Breslin.[6]
