Jasmine Justice

“The works of Jasmine Justice make something visible that was not visible before.” Kristina Kramer, 2016, We Were Alive at the Same Time.


While the majority of her practice is painting based, Justice’s creations often wander the territories of drawing and installation. She samples languages from painting’s history, from Abstract Expressionism or Post-Minimalism, casually merging them with disjunctive information systems. Fine-lined diagrams from newspaper infographics are lifted, inverted or evolved into ornamental icons, embedded in or emerging from colorful frenzies of romantic brushwork, or austere landscapes.


Justice attended the Ateliers Höherweg International Residency Program in Düsseldorf, 2015-2016. Solo exhibitions include the Kienzle Art Foundation and Scotty Enterprises in Berlin, 65Grand in Chicago, AtelierFrankfurt in Frankfurt, and the CUE Art Foundation in New York. She had a two-person exhibition with Elizabeth Cooper at Kulturwerk t-66 in Freiburg, Germany. Group exhibitions include Balts Projects in Zurich, W139 in Amsterdam, Haydarpasi in Istanbul, Brandenburgischer Kunstverein in Potsdam, Germany, Kunstverein Konstanz, in Germany, and Bronx River Art Center, Bronx, NY.
