Critics Review

“Martin is expressing our internal cartographies; emotional maps with structures of light and shade that elude rational explanation yet resonate more deeply than myriad figurative paintings.” - Financial Times

“The power of her paintings is that of a sublime symphony: their mute melodies as meticulously wrought as they are effortlessly imbibed by the ear of the eye”. - The Art Newspaper

“A stunningly beautiful volume … An affectionate biographical glimpse into Martin’s life … an apt tribute.” - Bookforum
