  "In this chapter we bring critical disability studies into dialogue with disability artworks that resituate critiques of inaccessibility and exclusion as complicated encounters with space, lived experience and embodiment. Drawing on Irit Rogoff’s (2003, 2006) notions of embodied criticality, and the pioneering work of performance studies scholar Petra Kuppers (2003, 2014), we argue for an embodied, embedded and creative form of critical disability studies – enacted through art. We examine two recent performance and installation works in hotels: Welcome Inn (2019) by British artist Christopher Samuel, and Intimate Space (2017) by Australian performance company Restless Dance Theatre."
