Justin Edward Menendez (b. 1981, Tampa, Florida) is an artist who works between painting and digital photography. The practice asks what remains of the image, aura and perception after mediation by the screen. Analog painted marks are photographed and digitally deconstructed until an unforeseen form asserts itself; that new image is then materialized with sublimated dye on aluminum and built up by hand with heavy acrylic.

Menendez has shown in group exhibitions in Paris and Mumbai, and presented a solo exhibition at 621 Gallery, Tallahassee. In 2026, they staged two mobile exhibitions in New York City from a glass-box truck, in Chelsea and Midtown. Their work is held in private collections in the United States and abroad. Menendez holds a BA in Cultural Theory from the University of Florida (2003).
