Carmenar, the verb that gives the exhibition its title, refers to the action of untangling, unravelling and cleaning hair, but also wool or any fibre that can be spun.

It is a manual action, separating the fibres with the fingers. A gesture marked by time, as another element that constructs it.

We untangle hair with a comb, just as cards do with wool, or we use it to move the warp that makes up a loom, using heddles. We comb to be able to order the written discourse through the intertwined thread.

It is precisely the word order, which comes from the Latin term ordor, which in turn designates this action of movement that occurs within the loom.

In this exhibition, Lara Ordóñez articulates a discourse between terms and actions within the textile support itself, seeking the material possibilities between the terms text and textile.
