Artists in residence
Each year, the Cité internationale des arts welcomes more than 1,000 artists from around the world, offering them a space for creation, research, and exchange in Paris, in the Marais and Montmartre districts. Open to all artistic disciplines—visual arts, music, literature, film, design and architecture, performing arts, and curating—it enables artists to develop their projects in an environment that fosters experimentation and meaningful connections.

Year/s of residence : 2022, Cité internationale des arts
Literature
Sid Walls is a writer and urbanist from New Zealand, now resident in Australia. She has degrees in English Literature and Urbanism, which inform her literary focus on the connections between psychology and place.
She is the recipient of several awards and acknowledgments for her work, including residencies at Varuna: The National Writers’ House, The Katherine Susannah Prichard Writers’ Centre and a mentorship award from the Australian Society of Authors.
Her residency involves work on a farcical deconstruction of the typical “Paris novel”- where impressionable foreigners learn l’art de vivre in the City of Light. The novel follows the implosion of a group of deluded writers desperately trying to recreate Hemingway’s Paris in the 21st Century. It examines what happens when we impose self-serving narratives onto people and places. She is also working on a companion piece looking at how power and agency are manifested in urban form and access to space.
