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.

El Abyad Khadija, multidisciplinary visual artist. Born in 1991 in Agadir. Lives and works in Casablanca.
Her practice revolves around “BODY SCREENS” in various dimensions, both intimate and cultural. The notion of physicality is adopted by the artist as a character and support that enables her to translate her commitments to her social future.
Her research is nourished by reflection on symbolically charged materials and objects, notably those that are extensions of the body or even produced by it, such as hair. Through the performative act, she explores these foundational elements, tracing them like notes on a score, playing radically with the social roots of “body screens”.
