Cover of Visual Disobedience: Art and Decoloniality in Central America by Kency Cornejo. Cover features a photograph of an individual with long black hair looking out over a yellow cornfield. The person wears a blue jacket with various words stitched into it in vibrant colors. The sky is blue above the field with a few scattered groups of puffy, white clouds.

Congratulations to Kency Cornejo, whose book "Visual Disobedience" has won the Association for the Study of the Arts of the Present Book Prize from @asapartsnow.bsky.social.
