This chair was originally intended as a chair for inducing purposeful remembrance of the mineworkers’ massacre at Marikana platinum mine on 16 August 2012 – the single most lethal use of force by South African security forces against civilians since 1960. Ultimately, it became an avenue for reconciling, expressing and negotiating my own experiences of violence and locating them relative to broader experiences of violence in the South African context.
