We prioritise those most in need of a studio. As part of the application process, we ask applicants to reflect on the opportunities available to them in education, income, financial security, occupation, living conditions, resources, and broader societal access.

Each year, we offer two six-month residency spaces. Successful applicants are expected to contribute to the public programme by organising an exhibition and workshop during their residency.

In Lille, artists and creators are at the heart of the city's cultural policy. The city develops tools and projects that enable them to produce, exhibit, and professionalize their work.

It is within this context that the Department of Visual Arts and Art in Public Spaces offers three emerging artists a three-month residency in Rome each year. The call for applications is open to visual artists, architects, and designers from Lille and the surrounding metropolitan area, aged under 40.

The artwork created during this residency is then featured in a group exhibition showcasing the various winners from the same season. It is presented in Lille at Espace Le Carré.
