For the past twenty years, carte blanche has both evolved with the changing global literary landscape and continued our mission to showcase the many ways one can tell a story—transformation is a very fitting theme for the final issue of this milestone year!
Issue 52 features cover art from collage artist Melody Pineda .pineda_ who created something new from our past by combining photography by Savannah Dodd, Mia Huang, Esther Mathieu, and David Swartz that was featured in past issues of carte blanche.
