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.

Architecture and design
Jade Apack is a French architect, artist, and independent researcher based in Paris. Her work revolves around the notion of transparency in territorial planning. She uses transparency as a lever for engagement in participatory, artistic, and political forms of action. To this end, she formally reinvests tools of power in a poetic and speculative manner: she questions legal texts, maps, protocols, and norms of representation and administration of territories through the design of objects, installations, or the organization of encounters – workshops, discussions, events. Co-founder of the Lost&Find association, which addresses themes related to the preservation of territories and the promotion of know-how, Jade also participated in the SPEAP program of Experiments in Political Arts in 2024, and was a fellow of the European platform LINA in 2023. Her work has been visible at the Lille Cartography Biennale 2024, and at the Explore festival at the Sicli Pavilion in Geneva in 2021.
