{"title":"Renee Aless Martinez","description":"\u003cp\u003eRenee Aless Martinez is a Houston-based artist whose work explores identity, emotion, and symbolism through printmaking and drawing. Centering the female figure, she creates richly layered compositions that merge portraiture, ornamentation, and personal mythology. Flowers, fruit, textiles, stars, and botanical forms recur throughout her work as symbolic motifs, constructing visual worlds that examine womanhood, selfhood, memory, and emotional experience. Through bold color, decorative pattern, and stylized figuration, Martinez transforms internal states into vivid, symbolic imagery. Her figures exist between portraiture and archetype, serving as vessels through which themes of vulnerability, desire and transformation are explored.  Martinez received her BFA in Printmaking from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design and completed a residency at the London Print Studio in England. Her work has been featured in public art initiatives throughout Houston, including the Houston ReFramed mural collaboration with the City of Houston and the Resiliency in the HeART of Downtown Houston graphic design campaign. In addition to collaborating with local businesses and nonprofits on design projects, Martinez maintains an active studio practice in Houston as a member of Burning Bones Press.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtwork from Renee Aless Martinez's newest collection is now available for purchase below.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"wildflower-woman","title":"Wildflower Woman","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e26\"h x 19.75\"w framed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eScreenprint \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEdition 6\/16\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlease note: Artwork will be on display through November 29, 2026 and will be shipped to collectors within two weeks following the closing of the exhibition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renee Aless Martinez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67894475980934,"sku":"22578","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0179\/6929\/files\/Wildflower-Woman.jpg?v=1793821692"},{"product_id":"west","title":"West","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e25\"h x 18.75\"w framed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eScreenprint \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEdition 4\/8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlease note: Artwork will be on display through November 29, 2026 and will be shipped to collectors within two weeks following the closing of the exhibition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renee Aless Martinez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67894476046470,"sku":"22577","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0179\/6929\/files\/West.jpg?v=1793821697"},{"product_id":"home-is-where-the-chairs-are-empty-and-the-tea-is-hot","title":"Home Is Where the Chairs are Empty and the Tea is Hot","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e17\"h x 11\"w \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eScreenprint \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEdition 6\/6\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003esigned en verso\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlease note: Artwork will be on display through November 29, 2026 and will be shipped to collectors within two weeks following the closing of the exhibition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renee Aless Martinez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67894580379782,"sku":"22576","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0179\/6929\/files\/HomeIsWheretheChairsareEmptyandtheTeaisHot_00001.jpg?v=1793829093"},{"product_id":"free","title":"Free","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e8.5\"h x 11\"w \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eScreenprint \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEdition 3\/9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003esigned en verso\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlease note: Artwork will be on display through November 29, 2026 and will be shipped to collectors within two weeks following the closing of the exhibition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renee Aless Martinez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67894583885958,"sku":"22575","price":500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0179\/6929\/files\/Free.jpg?v=1793829154"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0179\/6929\/collections\/Martinez_Collection.jpg?v=1794086882","url":"https:\/\/www.paradigmarts.org\/collections\/renee-aless-martinez.oembed","provider":"Paradigm Gallery + Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
