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.

Denis Ninine
Year/s of residence : 2020, Guadeloupe Department of Cultural Affairs
Visual arts
Born in 1987, Denis Ninine is a visual artist from Guadeloupe.
Graduated from the École d’Art de Martinique, his love and passion for drawing has grown over the years. His practice revolves around questions related to the relationship to the Place and the imaginary. He draws his inspiration from the landscape that surrounds him, rural as well as urban, through which he evokes his concerns and those of his time.
His work applies itself to “re-enchanting” the daily life by occupying the space that separates reality from fiction. His project is characterized by a diversity and richness of techniques used. His artistic approach considers at the same time drawing, painting, sculpture (assembly) and street art. Through which is born and develops a dreamlike universe inhabited by characters just as singular.
Beyond my influences linked to comics, it is by cultivating my singularity that my plastic work asserts itself as a distinct writing. For me, it’s a question of exploring another way of perceiving the everyday landscape, as if it had been passed through a filter tinged with dreamlike qualities. The use I make of color: vivid, raw, worked in contrast could evoke the processes of the pop art movement. Thus, it is thanks to the use of the circle that I set up the space of the canvas and distinguish the form from the background. I set up an unexpected figuration that takes us on a poetic adventure.

Lasseindra Ninja
Year/s of residence : 2021, Fondation Daniel et Nina Carasso
Dance
Lasseindra Ninja is a dancer and choreographer based in Paris for over ten years.
Trained in France and the United States, she has developed her artistic practice through the organization of major balls, choreographic creations and solo or collaborative performances.
Her work focuses on the identities and spaces that exist between the real and the virtual, from the stage to the screen and back again: when and under what conditions movement can be performed, and how it is perceived and judged.
A pioneer of the Ballroom Scene in Europe, she has founded the Eurasian chapter of the “International & Iconic House of Ninja”. Recognized within the international ballroom community with the title of Légende, she now explores the fields of contemporary creation within prestigious institutions such as the Centre National de la Danse or the Ballet National de Marseille at the invitation of the collective (La)Horde.
