Is there a difference between ‘looking’ and ‘seeing’? Is it possible to step into a space that helps us ‘see’ ourselves differently, in a way that transcends the surface? Indeed! Meet Miru.

Miru is a unique, customisable self-portrait experience. Working with Miru is about slowing down. It’s about deep self connection and reflection. It’s about coming into oneself.

Working with Miru is about opening up space for people to explore making images of themselves. They are guided through a creative, reflective process that encourages new ways of seeing and understanding.

Photographs are typically ‘taken’ or ‘captured’ by someone other than ourselves. This process shifts the power dynamic as the ‘subject’ loses control of how they are interpreted. Miru upends this balance of power and gives people autonomy over how they choose to represent themselves. It’s an intriguing, empowering experience.

Powerful visual assets are created through this process. Miru is often deployed with a specific intention or a focus of exploration that leads to unfolding discoveries. Sometimes these images form collections that (with permission) are shared with communities. Other-times, the images are privately made purely for the person making them.

Miru holds great potential. It’s mobile and malleable meaning that we can bring this experience to you and shape it to suit your needs . Reach out through our contact page if you’d like to speak further about Miru.
