Rebecca Margaret Salter (born 1955) is a British abstract artist who lives and works in London, England.
According to Gillian Forrestor, George Rainer, Salter's teacher at Bristol, motivated his students to not be confined to their desired mediums, but to use the opportunity of university to experiment.
In 1979, Salter received a Leverhulme Scholarship enabling her to become a research student at Kyoto City University of Arts in Japan until 1981.
Her earliest, Untitled B119 (1981), is a suite of woodblock prints on paper, stained with persimmon juice, to give the impression of age, reminiscent of Japanese wab[clarification needed].
In 2009, Salter worked on the refurbishment of St George's Hospital in Tooting, south London, in collaboration with architects Gibberd.
In 2011, she had her first major museum retrospective, Into the light of things, at the Yale Center for British Art, Connecticut.
