Roberto Lugo is a Philadelphia-based Puerto Rican graffiti artist and ceramicist, and one of the creators helping to launch Walmart’s Nuevolution Project. “My patterns draw from art history, my Puerto Rican heritage, as well as culture today. It is great to be in fine museums and galleries, but this Walmart collection brings my art to life in a new way.” Roberto’s line includes apparel and home products showcasing bespoke patterns that include visuals that represent his upbringing. Available in over 800 stores across the U.S. and online with accessible, affordable pricing. Link in the comments to shop ✨ CC: PLURAL*
