Super 8 Kodak B&W made for Mathilde Levistre's Fashion Design Thesis.
Over the course of five days, I used a 16mm camera to capture time-lapse footage of roses in decay, taking one exposure every three minutes. You can see traces of wind, night, and sunlight brushing against the petals. Including when I add water into the vase. This reflects on impermanence—a visual transformation and the agony, but quiet reminder that change is inevitable.

"In Between Bones" is an evocative project made in Brooklyn, NY during Winter of 2022. Directed, shot, and processed by Ingridi Viruel, and featuring Luana Seu. The project delves deep into the tumultuous landscape of human emotions, presenting a raw and unfiltered portrayal of the intricate dance between despair and happiness, love and anger. Through its narrative, "In Between Bones" reflects the philosophical chaos that resides within us all. It examines the spectrum of feelings that define our existence, imposing confrontation with the intensity of our own emotions. The project posits that in the intricate weave of life, no feeling is insignificant or unworthy of expression. Ultimately, "In Between Bones" delivers a poignant message: no feelings should ever be repressed. This project stands as a testament to the power of emotional honesty and the beauty found in the chaos of human experience.
