That urgency is apparent in her saturated compositions, glowing color palettes, sensuality, and sheer joy in the act of creation. The parade of models she portrays responds to urban life, to TikTok screens, Instagram, and the glamorous digital-Hollywood realm. She reveres celebrity culture, exaggerating its obsession with image, posing, and glitz to the point of parody. At the same time, Mirit’s women celebrate themselves: they soar, rebel, provoke, stick fingers in eyes and noses, serving as shifting alter egos for the artist herself. In this context, the appearance of Henri—who is neither youthful nor muscular, not tall nor fashionably dressed, but rather aging, overweight, and rumpled—offers an ironic counterpoint to the idealized fantasies of happiness and perfection.
