  • Simone Leigh (Chicago, 1967) è un'artista statunitense. Lavora con vari media tra cui scultura, installazioni video, performance e promuove attività esperienziali, di "pratica sociale", che coinvolgono direttamente il pubblico, come The Free People's Medical Clinic (2014) e The Waiting Room (2016). Ha descritto il suo lavoro come auto-etnografico e i suoi interessi includono l'arte africana, l'architettura vernacolare, la performance e il femminismo. Ha spesso affermato che il suo lavoro è incentrato sulla "soggettività femminile nera"; attraverso le sue opere intende colmare le lacune della documentazione storica realizzando nuove ibridazioni, sovrapponendo culture, periodi di tempo e aree geografiche. È stata la prima artista afroamericana scelta per rappresentare gli Stati Uniti alla Biennale di Venezia del 2022, nel cui padiglione ha allestito la mostra Sovereignty, sul tema dell'autodeterminazione. Il 23 aprile 2022 è stata insignita con il Leone d'oro per la miglior partecipazione alla mostra principale della Biennale Il latte dei sogni, per il suo progetto Brick House, una monumentale scultura "rigorosamente ricercata, realizzata con virtuosismo, potentemente suggestiva".
