“ciclo” – Paperwork

From the curatorial text:

“ciclo”—a hand-painted, 3D-printed sculpture—emerges from the whispers of audiences worldwide. Born of Paperwork, a series that digitizes emotional responses to Caballero’s poem performances, “ciclo” materializes ephemeral moments: a scribbled word, an origami swan, a collective sigh.

These fragments, fed into AI to generate digital paper sculptures, are later rendered tactile, bridging algorithmic abstraction and human touch.

In this fusion, poetry transcends the individual to become a shared archive, its body woven from the fibers of collective memory.

The digital and the physical, often mistakenly framed as opposites, here collapse into a singular testament to poetry’s enduring materiality.
