In Memory of Martha Beresford


Earlier this year, Art & Soul were saddened to learn of the passing of artist and Art & Soul member Martha Beresford.


Martha had been a member of the group since its inception in 1998, and is well known for her colourful, abstract and symbolic artwork that explores many aspects of life. 


Martha studied at Chelsea College of Art under Ruskin Spear, Gus Cummings & Eric Shanes among many others, where she gained a diploma in Art and Design. Over the past 40 years she has shown her work at galleries in and around London, including the Whitechapel Gallery, The Landmark Arts Centre, Orleans House Gallery & The Watermans Arts Centre.


She has also taken part in pop-up exhibitions through Art & Soul - at Admiralty House in Westminster, The Exchange in Twickenham and at libraries across the London Borough of Richmond Upon Thames. She has also been accepted by The Royal Academy of Arts.


Martha has created an eclectic portfolio, working and experimenting in various mediums and has been prolific throughout her artistic journey.

Art & Soul's 2024 exhibition, 'Inner Transformations', was dedicated to Martha Beresford's memory.
