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.

MUSIC
COMPOSITION
Wael Jegham aka Ghoula is a multi-instrumentalist musician and composer of Tunisian and international film music.
Digger and passionate about old North African vinyls, he released his first album Hlib El Ghoula in 2016 (Shouka/Inouïe Distribution), which means “milk of the ogress”, a Tunisian metaphor for something that cannot be found.
Ghoula’s music tells stories that bear witness to an era, its mentalities and customs. He reuses the lyrics, songs and melodies of old vinyls, and enriches them with his own melodies that he plays sometimes on gombri, sometimes on guitar, bass, keyboards… He also invites other artists to participate, whether to scratch, sing or play carabus.
This unexpected blend of traditional instruments and electronic productions invites you to travel through this mosaic of North Africa.

Visual arts
Born in 1981, Steffani Jemison lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Her work considers the weight of physical and social forces and fantasies of escape. Through video, writing, performance, and installation, her work poses such questions as: “How do we learn on the fly? How do we fly? If we’re all we’ve got, how do we use ourselves to find the forms of the future?”
Jemison’s work has been presented in numerous institutions including Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève (Switzerland, 2024); the Whitney Museum (United-States, 2019), the Stedelijk Museum (Netherlands, 2019), and Jeu de Paume (France, 2017).
