About
Justine Franco Butez (Mallorca, 1996) is a Spanish artist based in A Coruña. Her practice is rooted in the intersection of memory, identity, and visual culture.
Each painting begins with a fragment of lived experience, a feeling, an image, or a moment, translated through a language shaped by cultural memory, fashion, and symbolic detail. Rather than depicting literal narratives, she constructs layered compositions that evoke presence and emotion.
Her work draws from Spanish heritage while embracing diverse aesthetic influences, combining textiles, accessories, and recurring motifs to explore transformation, femininity, and ornament as meaning. In contrast to an increasingly reductive visual world, her paintings reclaim space through color, rhythm, and visual density.
In 2024, she collaborated with Zara Woman and Kave Home, and in 2025, she extended her visual universe through a creative project with Prime Video.
