Featured works

Among the pieces, a text by veteran actor Jacobo Morales, who starred in the short film 'Debí tirar más fotos,' greets visitors. Spanish artist Luis Ivorra created four ceramic sculptures of personified rabbits holding plantains and crabs, referencing Bad Bunny's co-ownership of the Cangrejeros de Santurce basketball team.

Artist perspectives

Ivorra notes that the rabbit is a disguise, as Bad Bunny started his career wearing a rabbit costume. Other artists include Omar Ortiz, who carved life-size wooden chairs from the album cover, and Grisselle Soto, whose triptych 'Siempre Fui Yo' depicts Benito with the Sapo Concho and Jacobo Morales in Vega Baja.
