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.

Arvida Byström (b. 1991 Sweden, Stockholm) is a digital native with an intrinsic relationship to pink. Her work is rooted in ideas that deal with the internet and its social, aesthetic and commercial implications. She is known for employing a hyper-feminine aesthetic to explore themes concerning femininity, body image, social dynamics, emerging technologies and economic principles through primarily a lens based practice including, performance and sculpture work.
Previously living in London and Los Angeles she is now in her hometown Stockholm where she travels in an aesthetic universe of disobedient bodies, fruits in lingerie, tulips and AI sex dolls. Her photography, performances and sculptures have been in art shows all over the world like V&A London, TATE, as she starred both behind and in front of the camera of numerous influential brands and magazines.
Anitra Lourie (b. 1990 Rhode Island, USA) is a final-year doctoral student and lecturer in philosophy of art at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. She is affiliated with Lab ACTE at the Sorbonne, Axe: Design – Art – Media and Telecom’s CoDesign Lab.
Her thesis, ‘The Reappropriation of the Self: Reflexive Self-Representation in Works on Social Networks’, examines the reappropriation of social networks as an artistic medium. She focuses on how contemporary women artists challenge the possibilities of new media and narrative techniques to create critical and reflexive identities, (re)constructing the intentions and potentials of technology and narrative concepts.
For the past four years, Anitra has taught philosophy of art, and history of art and digital humanities at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, the Sorbonne Nouvelle and the University of Rouen-Normandie. She has published articles in international academic journals such as PLASTIK, Design in Translation and Sens Public. She participates in and organises numerous conferences in France and the United States in the fields of aesthetics, media and gender studies. Last year, she was awarded the Alliance Mobilité scholarship for a period of research at Columbia University, in the Film and Media department.
