The series of screenings Cycle de projections (Projection cycle), featured a selection of films and art videos created by six different artists at L'appartement 22. from April 29 to May 6, 2023.
The performance-based video Birds, shows the projections as captured by a camera attached to custom-made dollies. Sometimes the constant motion is barely perceptible, at other times the projected light reveals parts of the warehouse, like corners, bricks, or abandoned equipment. Projected text tells a series of anecdotes, stories about people who get lost or fall asleep and are unable to wake up. Drawings of cars illustrate the stories.
