Museum of Austerity is a mixed reality exhibition that preserves memories of public and private events from the austerity era. Room 1 of the exhibition, which previewed at the BFI London Film Festival Expanded Realities in 2021, records personal stories of disabled benefit claimants who died between 2010 - 2020. 

 

Combining verbal testimony, original music, and volumetric capture, this exhibition brings together the skills of director Sacha Wares and the in-depth knowledge of John Pring, editor of Disability News Service, inviting audiences to contemplate close up the human impact of austerity.
