Aliya Prichard-Casey is a transdisciplinary curator and researcher based in Glasgow. Her practice is grounded in place-based research, with a strong emphasis on the reciprocal relationship between contemporary art and its surrounding contexts. Through exhibition-making, writing, and collaborative methodologies, her work explores spatial manipulation, resonance, and the conditions of encounter between artworks, artists, and audiences.

She is particularly interested in how curatorial strategies can shape modes of attention, affect, and engagement within both institutional and non-institutional settings.

Aliya’s research-led approach prioritises dialogue, experimentation, and responsiveness to site, often working closely with artists to develop projects that are sensitive to material, social, and spatial conditions. Her curatorial interests include contemporary installation, expanded exhibition formats, and practices that challenge traditional hierarchies of display and interpretation.

She holds a BA in History of Art from The Courtauld Institute of Art (2023) and an MA in Curatorial Practice (Contemporary Art) from The Glasgow School of Art (2024). In December 2025, she joined SaltSpace as a committee member, where she contributes to the organisation’s exhibition programme and ongoing commitment to artist-led practice.
