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.

Loucia Carlier is a French artist and editor, born in 1992 in Paris. She graduated from the École Cantonale d’art de Lausanne and was awarded the Emerige Revelation Grant in 2020.
Loucia Carlier’s work is anchored in the realms of science fiction, ecofeminist practices, collapsology, and her everyday life. Images, symbols, objects, and texts are assembled through embossing, printing, and molding on the surface of her pieces, which oscillate between sculpture and painting. These assemblages create hybrid landscapes of a humanity in the process of reorganization. A network of archetypal images and organic elements swells and works from within each piece, opening up the possibility of a subjective, relative, and resilient cosmology through small ruptures.
Her work reflects the underlying anxieties of a generation born in the 1990s. Fragments of bodies, caves, and architectures, mixed with medical, ufological, and psychedelic imagery, are printed and sculpted on the surfaces of her works. The interdependence of the body and its environment is far from uplifting in the age of capitalism, patriarchy, and ecological crisis. Sometimes accented with makeup, her pieces resemble a second skin—reactive to external aggressions and internal inflammations that we attempt, often unsuccessfully, to conceal.
Her work is regularly featured in solo and group exhibitions (Le Nouveau Printemps de Toulouse, CAC Brétigny, Salon de Montrouge, Villa Belleville, Art:Concept, Forde, Centre d’art contemporain de Genève, Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lausanne, Hamlet, among others). Alongside her artistic practice, she has been directing Klima, an independent journal dedicated to the intersection of contemporary artistic creation, academic research, social sciences, politics, and activist knowledge, since 2018.
