GRAPHIC DESIGN, JUDGMENT, AND VISUAL CULTURE IN THE CARIBBEAN AND LATIN AMERICA

The visual culture of the Caribbean and Latin America cannot be understood as a homogeneous or stable system; it is a territory shaped by flows, displacements, and symbolic overlaps in which images not only circulate, but constantly negotiate their meaning. Within this configuration, graphic design occupies a particularly distinctive position, as it does not function merely as a tool of mediation, but rather as a practice of judgment that intervenes in how the region represents, interprets, and projects itself.
