Projections events take place monthly at Tyneside Cinema. They include self- and guest-curated screenings, and new live work for cinema. Six of each year’s events are drawn from our biannual Open Call for artists and curators.

This summer we invite slime and sock puppets, colliding perspectives and awkward tourists into the cinema for a season marked by three new performance works. Sophie Soobramanien’s new film performance Ou est le pouce? (22 August) returns to her parents’ birthplace to unpick assumptions around heritage and nostalgia, while Bryony Gillard explores the dangerous female voice in Harmonic Anatomies / Wet Mouths (25 July), and Visions of Collisions (26 September) sees Film Bee take apart and rebuild the cinema experience itself. Start them early, meanwhile, with Gayle Meikle’s Video Ga Ga (24 August) — artists’ film for babies!
