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.

Born in France, Benoît Piéron lives and works in Paris.
Benoît Piéron is interested in the sensuality of plants, the boundaries of the body and the temporality of waiting rooms. His practice revolves around patchworks, installations, existential gardening and wallpaper designs. Having always experienced illness as a partner in life, the hospital environment is his ecosystem. He seeks to produce alternative expressions of illness, seeing it as a potential. Far from the romantic heroism of the usual metaphors for illness, Benoît Piéron places himself in a grey and joyful zone.
His practice is inspired by the experience of waiting, and explores the ambiguous boundaries between health and illness, presence and absence, inside and outside, the body and the architectural, temporal and medical structures that shape it. Recent exhibitions include the Liverpool Biennial (United Kingdom, 2023), the Palais de Tokyo (France, 2023), the Bourse de Commerce – Pinault Collection (France, 2023) and the Fondation Pernod Ricard (France, 2022). His work will be shown in two solo exhibitions at Chisenhale Gallery (United Kingdom, 2023) and mumok (Austria, 2024).
During his residency, Benoît Piéron will develop a project combining art and health. Drawing on his research on sexuality in hospital, initiated at the Antre Peaux for the exhibition “Bandage”, and supported by the Carta Bianca Prize, Benoît Piéron will engage a conversation with (im)patients about their experience of pleasure in hospital.
Informed by feminist theories and practices, his working methodology aims at creating, through reversed pedagogy, safe spaces to welcome, exchange and share patients’ experiences and perspectives.
