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.

Visual arts
After studying literature, Marie Bonnin joined the National School of Decorative Arts in Printed Image. There she discovered engraving, silkscreen printing and their almost magical ability to make images appear. There she developed a taste for experimentation and the mixing of printing techniques as well as a sensitivity for the book and the printed object.
Her artistic practice focuses on contemplation of landscapes and nature, starting from the memory of places travelled or familiar, ideal grounds for making an image.
In search of the very material of the landscape, she develops her reflection around the “palimpsest landscapes”, which reveal their depth by revealing the strata of their multiple variations.
Literature occupies an important place in her work. The literary text, always present as a watermark, makes it possible to draw one’s relationship to the landscape from experience to fiction. In this way, she strives to put the experience of reading into space.
In addition to her personal practice, she works on various illustration and publishing projects and draws for Hermès-Paris. In 2014, she obtained the Déclics Jeunes grant from the Fondation de France for a mobile printing project and regularly offers initiations to engraving in schools and festivals.
After a residency at the Manufacture d’images du Bief in Ambert (Auvergne) during the winter of 2017/18, she was an artist member of the Casa de Velazquez in Madrid for the year 2018/19.

Lisa Boostani
Year/s of residence : 2021, 2–12
Visual arts
Lisa Boostani is a multi-disciplinary artist of Spanish-Iranian origin.
Gratuated from l’école d’image des Gobelins in Paris with a specialization in photography, she works as a director and photographer in the fields of documentary, music and fashion.
Her fascination for gestures, body dynamics and the realm of dreams naturally led her to performance art. Through it, she explores the psycho-physical language, experiencing her own body as a basic material, alive and mutable. Her research is part of an initiatory and healing process, where distancing and surpassing oneself opens the way to a new consciousness. It is in an art of metamorphosis that Lisa Boostani explores emotions, their expressions in gesture, movement, image and sound.
Through invented worlds, atmospheres that play with the sensation of dreams and fictitious characters, she mixes symbols and archetypes to propose a different way of being in the world. An antidote served with humor, to free oneself from the norm and the various socio-cultural conditionings.
