Pass directory name as selectionArgs and change selection String as:

 String selection = MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA + " like ? ";
 String selectionArgs =new String[] {"%PASS_DIR_NAME_HERE%"};

 new CursorLoader(getContext(),MediaStore.Files.getContentUri("external"), 
                 projection, 
                 selection, 
                 selectionArgs,
                 MediaStore.Files.FileColumns.DATE_ADDED + " ASC");
