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.

Karla Hiraldo Voleau
Year/s of residence : 2022, Cité internationale des arts
Visual arts
Karla Hiraldo Voleau, born 1992, is a French-Dominican artist. She graduated from ECAL University of Arts and Design in Lausanne (Switzerland) in 2018. Her project Hola Mi Amol was published in 2019 as her first photo book. The publication was a laureate of the Swiss Young Talents for Photography, and presented at Paris Photo as part of the Aperture First Book Awards 2019 shortlist. Hiraldo Voleau was selected as a Foam Talent 2020, and as a laureate for the Olympus Recommended Fellowship 2020. Most recently, she exhibited her performative project A Man in Public Space, at the Biennale de l’Image Possible of Liège 2020, at the Biel Fototage 2021, and at Webber gallery during Photo London 2021, among other venues. She will present her first solo show Another Love Story at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris, in June 2022.
Her work revolves around identity, vulnerability and love, as well as gender roles and gender performances in our society. She’s often her own protagonist in her series, and this position makes the work deeply personal. At the same time, she’s dealing with how women can reclaim themes that are usually associated with masculinity, like voyeurism, desire, or the gaze. She combines fictional, non-fictional and auto-fictional elements. While investigating the borders of the allowed in human interactions, love, sexuality, friendship, she stands on the thin line that separates ‘real life’ and art.
