Ana María Caballero's work explores how biology delimits societal and cultural rites, ripping the veil off romanticized motherhood and questioning notions that package sacrifice as a virtue. She's the recipient of the Beverly International Prize, Colombia’s José Manuel Arango National Poetry Prize, the Steel Toe Books Poetry Prize, and a Sevens Foundation Grant.
Her Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net-nominated work has been widely published and exhibited internationally, recently at bitforms, Gazelli Art House, UNIT, and L’Avant Galerie Vossen. She became the first artist to sell a poem at live auction in Spain, and her digital poems have been released by Diario ABC, TimePieces and Playboy. Recognized as a Web3 poetry pioneer, her work has been covered by major media outlets, and she regularly speaks at leading global events. The author of five books, with a sixth forthcoming in 2024, she's also the co-founder of digital poetry gallery theVERSEverse.
