Marta Soul is a Spanish visual artist, photographer and curator. She was born in Madrid, Spain, and grew up there. She moved to England in 2014, but continued working in Spain.

As a photographer, Soul produces visual reflections on cultural topics like aesthetics of the self, emotions, and behavior patterns.[1] Her photography includes characters portrayed on backgrounds with a particular social narrative, where she plays with the appearance of these characters to reflect on issues like consumerism and the expression of desires.[2][3] Her works raise questions about current stereotypes on issues like immigration, consumerism, or romantic love. Her relationship with the people portrayed is essential to the final result.

She has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in Spain, Guatemala, Los Angeles, as well as in countries like Italy, China, England, Poland and Portugal. Her work has been published in various media outlets, including El País,[4] La Repubblica,[5] Condé Nast Traveler, Harper's Bazaar, Matador, Io Donna, and Internazionalle, and it is owned by important collections, like the Getty Museum.[6]

She created the NOPHOTO collective and has curated a wide number of exhibitions and residency programs in Spain and Latin America.[7] She created the project Como Ser Fotógrafa (How to Be A Female Photographer) in 2020,[8] which aims to make the artistic work of active international female photographers more visible.[9]
