\tGrammy winner Bad Bunny has made quite an impact<\/a> in recent years, including on artist Edra Soto.
\tHaving also grown up in Puerto Rico<\/a>, Soto now intentionally repurposes objects and designs from her childhood into pieces of art<\/a> that represent life on the small island, such as her upholstered plastic lawn chairs, which are deeply connected to Puerto Rican culture.
\tShe’s also been watching Bad Bunny<\/a>‘s rise in fame and on the music charts over the last decade, appreciating his outspoken support for his home and community in Puerto Rico. So when the rapper released his 2025 album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS <\/em>(which went on to win album of the year at the 2026 Grammys<\/a>), and the cover art featured two plastic lawn chairs, she knew it was time to bring her idea to life. \t<\/p>\n
