Margaret Coleman

Nurses and Doctors

June 2nd – Octoberer 3rd 2026

Margaret Coleman is a Memphis artist whose drawings and paintings are inspired by her life experience and surroundings. Coleman made these drawings of Memphis healthcare workers in the late 1990's. She has produced distinct bodies of work depicting religious scenes informed by her faith, portraits of civil rights leaders, and images of local fashion in addition to these portraits of medical professionals. These richly colored portraits emphasize the individuality and warmth of those individuals while more broadly representing the brave network of health care workers across the globe who offer hope to us all. Tops has previously exhibited Colemans's work in the group show Tree of Life in 2019 and at the Outsider Art Fair in 2020.
