In our societies marked by the rise of populism, the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence and the proliferation of global conflicts, voices are far from being free. Words and sounds are often used for other purposes, becoming a means of manipulation and domination. The artists presented here share a common ambition: to give a voice to all those from whom it has been taken. Their approach aims to achieve a personal and collective liberation.

In a world where it is becoming increasingly urgent to find new forms of expression and to rethink our relationships with one another, the Cité internationale des arts represents a sanctuary. Since 1965, this residency centre dedicated to contemporary creation has welcomed artists and creative professionals from all walks of life and all disciplines. Here, every voice finds the space and safety it needs to flourish.
