Birkin has also worked as an actor in film and theatre, including productions for the Royal National Theatre, Peter Hall Company, and Brooklyn Academy of Music, and narrated the English translation of the 1953 film by Chris Marker and Alain Resnais, Les statues meurent aussi, at the French Institute in London.

2015

His first public solo exhibition, "Mouths at the Invisible Event", opened at The Mosaic Rooms, London, in 2015. Hyperallergic described it as "a methodical examination of the language, aesthetics, and ethos of modern warfare [that] ultimately makes the emotional reality and Kafkaesque lunacy of such a system hit home."
