ROSE MIHMAN
UK
Rose Mihman creates surreal, haunting portraits that fuse fantasy with echoes of the past. Her theatrical self-portraits draw on religious iconography, baroque drama, and themes of madness and transformation.
Deeply inspired by Surrealist art, vintage aesthetics, and early cinema pioneers like Georges Méliès, she blends antique objects with digital magic to craft images that feel both dreamlike and timeless — a hypnotic escape shaped by her fascination with metamorphosis, memory, and bold reinvention.

CHIMERA
This exhibition is an invitation to journey through a collection of photographs, each carrying a story, a suspended moment, a fragment of life. Through a wrinkle, a feather, a breast, a tear, she composes imaginary narratives — entirely fantastical and resolutely surreal.
Outside time and space, the images drift in a weightless universe, guided solely by our emotions.
Each frame has been carefully sourced, as have the clothes and accessories featured in these images. Some elements are antique, while others emerge from collaborations with contemporary artisans — weaving a dialogue between past and present, reality and imagination.
