Fifty Ways of Looking at a Poem
Fifty Ways of Looking at a Poem celebrates the ways in which writers and readers construct each other. Readers give literature life within their minds, honoring words when they make them their own by leaving a mark.
Paperwork
Throughout 2023, Caballero performed her poetry in numerous venues across the world, inviting audience members to write down one-word responses to her verse on sheets of paper. The words they inscribed represent the multivalent emotional reactions that poetry elicits. One audience member left an origami swan. She gathered these slips of paper—these distilled, private moments of connection to performed poetry—and used each word to actuate Paperwork’s compositions, connecting the personal to the universal via the database of our collective unconscious that is AI.
