Gabriel Mrabi, Lauréat du Prix de la Photographie American Vintage 2025

Following “To Buñuel,” a new attempt to summon the past: photographing fifteen people wearing different watches, all set to 10 o’clock, the exact time of Marie-Laure de Noailles’ death.

Gabriel Mrabi, who draws on both Spanish and Moroccan cultural backgrounds, is a 27-year-old photographer based in Paris. Deeply inspired by surrealism and the films of Luis Buñuel, he uses photography as a medium for experimentation to explore cinema, question the fluidity of genres, and reflect on the passage of time. He was awarded the American Vintage Photography Prize at the Hyères International Festival.
