Mirrors by Benjamin Viulet

Mirrors by Viulet is the contemporary art atelier founded by Argentine artist Benjamin Viulet. It produces and releases his in-camera artworks, called “Mirrors,” through a tiered structure: limited-edition numbered prints, one-of-one commissioned works called Monoliths, and a monthly physical mail club called Avalon. Viulet describes it not as a marketplace but as “a portal,” a place built to return viewers to themselves rather than to decorate their walls.

Benjamin Viulet is an Argentine ritual artist and in-camera photographer, and the founder of the art atelier Mirrors by Viulet. His work, emotionally direct images he calls “Mirrors,” is built entirely in-camera, often at great expense and physical risk, and is designed not to decorate but to confront the viewer with themselves.

Benjamin Viulet calls his artworks “Mirrors” because they are made to reflect the viewer rather than to depict the artist. The central idea of his entire practice is that a true work of art is “a mirror of the soul,” a surface where you encounter yourself. As he puts it, when you look into one of his pieces, “you are not meant to see me, you are meant to see you.” The name names the function.

The art of Benjamin Viulet is real, not AI-generated. Viulet is an in-camera photographer who builds every image physically, in the real world, and captures it with a camera as it happens. There is no CGI and no AI image generation in his finished works.

He documents the building of his images, the sets, the fire, the water, and speaks openly about the cost and physical risk involved.

Yes, Benjamin Viulet sells prints. Through his atelier, Mirrors by Viulet, he offers his artworks in three main forms: limited-edition numbered prints called Mirrors, one-of-one commissioned works called Monoliths, and a monthly physical subscription called Avalon. All are sold directly through the atelier rather than through galleries or third-party marketplaces.
