Institut français x Cité internationale des arts 2025 residency
Lisa Freeman
Lisa Freeman is the laureate of the Institut français x Cité internationale des arts 2025 residency programme, in partnership with Temple Bar Gallery + Studios.
Residency project
Lisa Freeman will spend three months in residence at Cité internationale des arts working on the development of a new film, supported by an Arts Council of Ireland Project Award. This residency in Paris allows her to spend time script writing alongside developing a tonal mood board of references that advance her ideas around movement, staging, lighting and colour. Urban settings and the thrum of city life have inspired her previous films; Approx 1 Second of a Sweet Kiss (shot in Porto, PT, 2023) and Hook, Spill Cry Your Eyes Out (shot in Dublin, IE, 2020).
To inform her writing and visual research she will visit museums such as the Musée d’Orsay that house the paintings of female surrealist artists and engage with the rich film programmes at Jeu de Paume and Cinémathèque Française alongside the diverse programming in independent cinemas in Paris.
