Assistant Curator The Art House
Amelia Baron is a Leeds-based curator and artist currently working as the Assistant Curator at The Art House in Wakefield (Instagram). Since joining the curatorial team in 2021, Amelia has focused on championing accessibility, neurodivergence, and mental health within the creative sector.
She is deeply committed to supporting artists who face barriers to their practice and ensuring art remains accessible to all, regardless of background or class. A graduate of Leeds Arts University (BA Fine Art, 2018), Amelia’s own artist practice uses performance and installation to explore the complexities of the mind. Her work often features delicate materials and repetitive gestures to reflect on the fragility of mental health, a practice rooted in her lived experience of using art as a primary tool for communication and recovery.
