Edra Soto (b. 1971) is a Puerto Rican artist, educator, and co-director of the outdoor project space The Franklin. Soto fosters meaningful, relevant, and often complex conversations surrounding socioeconomic and cultural oppression, the erasure of history, and the loss of cultural knowledge. Raised in Puerto Rico and now immersed in her Chicago community, the artist has evolved to pose questions through her work about constructed social orders, diasporic identity, and the legacy of colonialism.
She has been awarded the Joyce Award; the 3Arts Next Level Prize; the Illinois Arts Council Fellowship; the Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters and Sculptors Fellowship; the Bemis Center's Ree Kaneko Prize; the US LatinX Art Forum Fellowship; and the MacArthur Foundation's International Connections Fund. Her work is featured in the collections of institutions including the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; the Pérez Art Museum, Miami; the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico; the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Puerto Rico; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago.
