The Poetry Project

Car Lara

Car Lara is a Queens-born, multidisciplinary artist and experimental writer of Mexican and Honduran heritage. Writing bilingually, they explore themes of transculturality and the domestic in their work. Interested in creating a poetry art intersection, they consider their writing to be a verbal tapestry, with typography as its crux. Techniques they utilize include shaping verse with symbols and employing kerning and redactions as a fossilized space linking visual arrangements.
