Desagertzen diren lexikoa (Lexicon of Disappearing Words) will be part of A Rope Being Woven, a new exhibition within the 2026 annual programme of Mapamundistas.

The exhibition focuses on the concept of generation proposed by anthropologist Tim Ingold. Ingold uses the image of a rope as a metaphor for coexistence between generations: each person, each generation, contributes their own thread, their own making, to a common rope that is always in the process of being woven. This image stands in contrast to the metaphor of a stack, in which each new generation replaces the previous one in an ongoing succession.

Una cuerda que se tejebrings together nine artists who work with close, sometimes intimate, communities made up of people who do not usually engage in artistic practice, through a collaborative process that is considered as valuable as the work that emerges from it.

Participating artists: Pauline Cholier, Oscar Derouet, Céline Domengie, Zarys Falcón & Alberto Perantón, La Comunidad Sanguínea, Alba de la Portilla, Victor Fornies, Iratxe Jaio and Laurita Siles.

Curator: Alexandra Baurès
