This Berkeley MFA exhibition probes how museums and institutions exclude disabled bodies

Priyanka D’Souza's Master of Fine Arts thesis installation, "b. Call in sick," opens today at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (BAMPFA) as part of the annual MFA exhibition at UC Berkeley. D’Souza, one of six graduating MFA students, created works that critique how museums and institutions exclude disabled bodies, using angled shelves, rolling stools, and seating to privilege seated viewers over standing ones. Her practice draws on campus protest photos from Berkeley archives, transformed into semi-abstract renderings, and builds on her earlier Instagram project "Resting Museum," developed after a residency at the Delfina Foundation in London.
