Good Night, Malaysia 370 is a personal project exploring grief through a sensitive investigation. Ten years after the disappearance of flight MH370, I retraced its route, searching for traces and weaving together diverse image sources.
On 8 March 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 disappeared with 239 people on board. Ten years later, in March 2024, the official investigation remained unresolved: no bodies, no wreckage—only hypotheses and grey areas in a world saturated with technology and surveillance.
Among the passengers was Yan, an 18-year-old French girl and my friend.
The last images of her—a photo posted on Instagram, then airport surveillance footage—became the intimate starting point of my photographic project, suspended between memory and the impossibility of mourning.
Ten years later, in 2024, I flew once more from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with Malaysia Airlines, on the anniversary of the disappearance.
At the airport, I met pilots, engineers, journalists, and families of victims, and I was confronted with conflicting accounts: accident, deliberate act, interception, cover-up… Everyone was still searching for an elusive truth.
Rather than adding another theory to this unresolved disappearance, the project propose a visual investigation combining documentary and fiction, personal images and archives. My photographs bore the imprint of the connected world in which they were made.
Faced with emptiness, they became a fragile yet necessary thread—capable of resisting oblivion and accompanying mourning, from night toward light.
