This is consistent with complete failure of the internal drive. No disk showing for install destination, and no disk showing in Disk Utility.
Arranging for Apple Authorized Service to diagnose with a qualified technician is your only option at this point. Follow the instructions given in the other posts for Service.

On your MacBook Air Apple Silicon (M1, 2020), if the screen displays “Select the system you want to use to start up your computer” but no startup systems appear below it, try restarting the Mac to access Startup Options.
Press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds to shut down your Mac.
Wait a few seconds, then press and hold the power button again until “Loading startup options” appears.
If Macintosh HD appears, select it and click Continue.
If Options appears, select it and click Continue to access macOS Recovery.
In Recovery, open Disk Utility and check whether the internal drive is listed.
Do not erase the disk.
If the screen remains blank or Startup Options do not appear, follow Apple's startup troubleshooting guidance or macOS Recovery instructions.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple Support for further diagnosis.
