Flora Martínez Bravo (Toluca, State of Mexico, 1925 - San Luis Potosí, 2022) was a prominent artist whose extensive body of work was primarily developed in the suburbs, while remaining connected to the Mexican realist movement. During her childhood, her family relocated to San Luis Potosí, where she studied painting under mentors such as Raúl Gamboa and Lorenzo Guerrero, among others. She participated in traveling exhibitions and held several solo shows. Additionally, she was the niece of renowned photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo.

Martínez Bravo interacted with notable figures like Rufino Tamayo and David Alfaro Siqueiros, the latter offering her a position on his team of assistants. In the 1960s, her work evolved toward a geometric style, although she never entirely abandoned the realism that defined her artistic practice.
