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.

Dance
Born in Brazil, Castiel Vitorino Brasileiro lives and works on planet Earth. Through photography, video, dance, painting and installations, her practice explores healing in the existential and corporeal fields, and the reterritorialization of the body and the spaces in which it circulates and inhabits.
In his multi-disciplinary practice, Castiel Vitorino Brasileiro investigates the mystery between life and death, and ways of navigating between these existential zones. His work has been shown in numerous institutions, including the 35th São Paulo Biennale (Brazil, 2023), Serpentine (UK, 2023), Visual Arts Center at the University of Texas (USA, 2022), Kunsthalle Wien (Austria, 2021) and the 11th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art (Germany, 2020).

Visual arts
Nicolás Daniel Vizcaíno Sánchez creates art through painting, drawing, installation, curation, printmaking, and video. He participated in three pivotal artistic residencies over the first ten years of his career. At Cooperartes (Bogotá, 2016), he gained international exposure, including opportunities with a gallery in Los Angeles and a biennale in Ireland. At Lugar a dudas (Cali, 2017), he deepened his critical approach, leading to a master’s degree in history. Finally, at Akademie Schloss Solitude (Stuttgart, 2022), he delved into the struggles of the African diaspora.
Now based in Paris, Nicolás engages in debates around historical reparations for Black populations, rewriting historical narratives, and critiquing colonial legacies. His research, rooted in the Chocó region and inspired by local Black intellectual traditions, aims to develop concepts that reimagine the common good while challenging traditional authority structures.
For Nicolás, professional art-making involves navigating precarious contracts and political agendas, but he approaches these challenges strategically, always prioritizing the collective good.
Nicolás Daniel Vizcaíno Sánchez (Colombia) is in residence through the “Ministry of Cultures, Arts and Knowledges of Colombia x Cité internationale des arts” programme
