Poor Meme, Rich Meme by Aria Dean (2016)

Article by artist, Aria Dean, that delves into the formative role of Black cultural production on the internet. Dean writes, "We have long been digital, “compressed, reproduced, ripped, remixed” across time and space. For blackness, the meme could be a way of further figuring an existence that spills over the bounds of the body, a homecoming into our homelessness." Read about Dean's layered artistic practice here. My favorite works of hers are her “impossible objects” :)
