“Ghosts of Silk” (2026-)
Parasitizing images in the very moment of their emergence to reveal their disappearance.
In Vietnam, women in Áo Dài pose for other gazes, captured for other images. Mirial is not the one they are addressing. From a distance, he observes, extracts, diverts. The act of photographing becomes furtive, almost clandestine.
Long exposure alters the bodies: it stretches, fragments, dissolves them. Silk extends the movement toward erasure. The figures become the residues of time. Ghosts of Silk explores the limits of representation, between apparition and disappearance.
