Lacey Fine Art

Beatrice Lacey is an English painter and printmaker, who has spent most of her adult life in the South of England.

Founder of the Memorial Art Gallery, Hastings,
Beatrice is also known for the wide variety of artistic drawing styles developed and explored around ideas about the body and the space occupied by the body.




It was in London that Beatrice attended the Oval House theatre school and studied improvised theatre as well as Jazz voice with Maggie Nichols; she loved the spontaneity of jazz improvisation and the expression of free fringe theatre.



“My inspiration stems from an interest in capturing the aesthetic qualities of the human form. To this end, my current images combine a contrast between form and spirit, offering the reminder that all formations of being are transient.”
Beatrice Lacey
