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.

Visual arts
Jody Rallah is a yuggera/yugggerabul and biri/bindal artist from Meeanjin/Brisbane. Rallah creates ‘knowledge vessels’ using various mediums and practices across object making and painting, sculptural installation, facades and thoroughfares, soundscapes and collaborative intergenerational approaches. She creates both large-scale and intimate forms to embody living histories and to explore an evocative sensibility with material creations and iconography.
Rallah investigates how the aliveness of place is encoded in memory spaces, and how a haptic hands-on approach to art making and design can foster inclusive conversations by inviting curiosity about relationships with Country, the built environment and our place within it. Through the art-making process, Rallah is passionate about re-embedding First Nations knowledge back into the built environment by collaborating with Elders and organisations to create spaces and vessels that are inviting and alive with movement, memory and narratives.
