In 1994 she was included in the seminal exhibition Some Went Mad, Some Ran Away, curated by Damien Hirst, at the Serpentine Gallery, London. Simpson’s work was also part of the controversial Sensation exhibition of 1997.[2]

Recent solo exhibitions include: A Three Way Conversation with Myself at the New Art Centre, Roche Court, Wiltshire (2005); “Tableau at CAC Malaga (2004); and Somewhere (between freezing and melting) there lies passion at both Galería Javier López, Madrid and Sandra Gering Gallery, New York (2004).

Simpson’s work is part of many public and private collections including the Arts Council of England, Damien Hirst’s Murderme Collection, the British Council and the Colección Ciudad de Pamplona. Four of her works were in the Saatchi Collection.[3] Simpson is also the current production manager of a portfolio of prints called House of Fairy Tales, which includes work by Dexter Dalwood, Cornelia Parker, Sir Peter Blake and Gavin Turk. In 2014 Simpson returned to live in Swansea and opened an art gallery in the city.[4]

Simpson is well known for her sculptures, which involve various materials, from rubber casting techniques to sewing machines connected to refrigeration units so that they become covered with a layer of frost. Regarding her work, Simpson has said "I think of it as a marriage of two different technologies."[5]
