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.

Beatrice Mika Sakaki (1999, Florence) is an Italian-Japanese artist based in Venice. Her work explores suspension as an affective condition of the present, through CGI videos and installations that inhabit the threshold between what remains and what fades away. The digital image, understood as a sensitive duration, becomes for Sakaki a device of embodied thought — a field in which time is held, revealing the tension between desire, stasis, and waiting.
She has exhibited in venues such as Spazio Punch (Venice), Recontemporary (Turin), Arte Fiera Bologna 2025, Galleria di Piazza San Marco (Venice), and Almanac (Turin). A graduate of the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, she is currently completing her Master’s degree in Visual Arts at the IUAV University of Venice.
