the chair/la silla
the chair, for me, is a simple symbol of resistance. to sit. to relax. to do nothing. i have two chair tattoos to remind myself: resist // la silla, para mí, es un simple símbolo de resistencia. sentarse. relajarse. no hacer nada. tengo dos tatuajes de sillas para recordarme: resistir.
thinking about the revolutionary nature of the chair i remember a few things // al pensar en la naturaleza revolucionaria de las sillas, recuerdo algunas cosas:
the design anarchy edition of adbusters:
Adbusters - Issue No. 37 by Carl Gabriel Calpe Culvera
the anarchist's design book by christopher schwarz
the black history of the montgomery brawl folding chair
zapata en su silla:
i would like to ask that the next time you sit, think of it as a revolutionary act // me gustaría pedirles que la próxima vez que se sienten, piensen en ello como un acto revolucionario.
