The City That Slept is a collaborative video art project illustrating our disorienting experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using the "exquisite corpse" surrealist technique, this video montage unites the unique personal aesthetics of each artist into a collective expression. It offers a glimpse into our day to day routines through a plethora of activities, as a means of coping in times of uncertainty, where “normal” has become an illusive conviction.

“Thrown into an endless loop, the only semblance of time is waking up and going to sleep.”
