The film Sediment was created especially for the exhibition Towards a Critical Institution at Poznań’s Arsenal Municipal Gallery in 2013. It was presented in a dedicated, darkened room. Dorota Grobelna wrote about its evocative narrative: “[…] the engaging, hypnotic rhythm in which the artist records the gallery’s cellar-like and seemingly decaying spaces.” Doroszuk’s work critically refers to a specific cultural institution, symbolically accentuating its entanglement in the past and, through suggestive imagery, accuses it of stagnation.
