About
The Art House welcomes Hospital Rooms to Yorkshire, with a celebratory exhibition that invites us to consider how contemporary art can reshape experiences of care within some of the most complex mental health settings in the UK.
Hospital Rooms is an arts and mental health charity that commissions permanent artworks in mental health wards, working with leading contemporary artists and NHS trusts to transform clinical environments. This exhibition celebrates their recent Yorkshire project that brought 15 artist commissions into forensic wards and Psychiatric Intensive Care Units at Fieldhead Hospital in Wakefield, and Kendray Hospital in Barnsley.
