Beverley Jane Stewart Hon Bed.FRSA

Beverley-Jane Stewart is a narrative artist whose work explores immigration and the hidden challenges often masked by historical events. She reveals how the past shapes our understanding of today’s society, a theme central to her art. Her grandparents arrived in Britain from Romania and Poland in the early 1900s. Though second-generation British, Stewart embraced both British values and her Jewish-European heritage.

Guided by the question, “If I am only for myself, what am I?” (Hillel, 10 BC), she explored urban landscapes, particularly places of worship and docks—sites of migration and social change. Stewart highlights the immigrant struggle with displacement, cultural shifts, and stereotypes, drawing from her family history and teaching in London’s diverse schools.

Beverley-Jane is an international artist who is a painter, printmaker and experiments with mixed media. In 2025 she exhibited solo exhibitions in Rome, Italy, and Oradea, Romania. She was also selected for group exhibitions in Torino, Italy, and numerous locations within the United Kingdom, such as Kent and London.
