I have visited Clement Briend's 'Projection Art. From Theory to Practice' workshop recently at Strelka, which seems to be a very useful experience. I have been looking into opportunities to use projection on 'Screens' instead of photographs, videos or mirror reflection of space for a while, and it looks like this tool could become a solution. For now I am exploring different types of optics I have.

It seems from experiments that Tokina 70-210 mm lens is the best option for small scale projection, while Tokina 28-70 mm and Canon 50 mm lenses are the best for huge projections. However, Canon 50 mm lens seems to be more bright hence there is no added zoom optics. Canon 135 mm lens seems to produce a projection almost as small on produced as Tokina 70-210 mm lens set on 210, but seems much brighter as well. Overall, it does look like it is preferable to pick a lens without any zoom optics. I hope I will explore this tool further with mirrors and try to apply particular lenses to project images in my devices.
