An ever evolving capsule of black memes, originally formed as a response to the viral video (and subsequent memes) of a brawl on the riverside in Montgomery, Alabama, where Black people essentially fought off racist white attackers, one of them with a folding chair. The folding chair has since become not only a meme but a symbol of black self-defense. The presence of the folding chairs in the exhibition are essentially covert weapons, representing the balancing act of being black in white spaces, having to speak a certain way and all that. The chair exists between rest and action, between action and bearing witness, between the viewer and the subject.
