Antonella Ferrari .ferrari is an Argentine writer and actress living between Buenos Aires and New York. She is currently completing her first novel, an ironic and intimate exploration of growing up in Argentina during the 2000s .

Learn about her residency project in her own words below…

“My intention during this residency is to immerse myself in the final stage of my novel Ana while working in a different environment. Living in New York can be exciting but also overwhelming, and I hope this time away will allow me to approach the project with greater focus and clarity, and to deepen my understanding of the story.”

🇫🇷 Antonella Ferrari est une écrivaine et actrice argentine vivant entre Buenos Aires et New York. Elle finalise actuellement son premier roman, une exploration intime et ironique de ce que signifie grandir dans l’Argentine des années 2000.

Découvrez son projet de résidence dans ses propres mots ci-dessous…

« Mon intention pendant cette résidence est de me plonger dans la dernière étape de mon roman “Ana” tout en travaillant dans un environnement différent. Vivre à New York peut être passionnant, mais aussi écrasant, et j’espère que ce temps loin de la ville me permettra d’aborder le projet avec plus de concentration et de clarté, et d’approfondir ma compréhension de l’histoire. »

Clémence Trossevin (FR) Painter & Illustrator. Originally from the Cévennes region, Clémence Trossevin now lives in Paris. After studying archaeology and art history at the École du Louvre, she devoted herself to illustration. Through her gouache paintings, she explores memory, what remains and what slowly disappears. She seeks to depict her surroundings and bring attention to those familiar places we often pass by too quickly, trusting in their permanence.

Learn about her residency project in her own words below…

“For several months now, the figure of the ruin has played a significant role in my creative process. I consider it in its broadest sense, as a call to the past, a form of memory that can take the form of an old building or a Citroën 2CV gradually being reclaimed by weeds over the years. A residency at the Manoir de la Moissie would allow me to take advantage of an exceptional setting, both in terms of its natural beauty and its historical significance, to continue my research on this subject. I am also very eager to engage with the guest artists, the hosts, and the local residents”

This month we are thrilled to welcome our first Argentine artist, Emilia Naistat ❤️🇦🇷

Emilia Naistat (Buenos Aires, 1997) holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Arts with a specialization in Sculpture from the Universidad Nacional de las Artes (Argentina). Her recent solo gallery show Vamos, en el fin. Beso was presented at Galería Vía Monte and curated by Belén Coluccio. During 2025, her work was selected and awarded a scholarship to participate in the Artists Programme in Theatre, Dance and Performance at Universidad de San Andrés (Argentina). Naistat’s work has been shown in several group exhibitions and she has participated in multiple art residencies in Argentina and France.

Learn about her residency project in her own words below…

“My most recent work has been guided by a research called Paisajes para el color [Landscapes for Colour], characterised by the construction of space through a sustained engagement with painting, exploring colour, generating depth with tonal degradation and variation between scales. Increasingly, it expands into installation and research connecting painting with practices exploring space and time, such as the performing arts.

During my residency, my intention is to deepen this research while stimulating experimentation. I think of my residency at La Moissie as a rhizomatic experience, articulated in collaboration with colleagues, where my painting production will be influenced by the context and inspired by the surrounding ecosystem. “

A May garden party 🌿

A big part of the residency happens around the table: laughter shared between new friends, conversations that continue long after the meal, ideas exchanged between disciplines, and the simple pleasure of slowing down together.

Last week, our residents gathered in the garden for a seasonal meal prepared by our friend and chef Thomas Camu using locally sourced ingredients.

Not many photos of the evening itself. We were too busy eating, talking, laughing, and enjoying each other’s company. 🥰

🇫🇷Une fête de jardin au mois de mai 🌿

Une grande partie de la résidence se déroule autour de la table : des rires partagés entre nouveaux amis, des conversations qui se prolongent bien après le repas, des idées qui circulent entre disciplines, et le simple plaisir de ralentir ensemble.

La semaine dernière, nos artistes en résidence se sont retrouvés dans le jardin autour d’un repas de saison préparé par notre ami et chef Thomas Camu à partir de produits locaux.

Peu de photos de la soirée elle-même. Nous étions trop occupés à manger, discuter, rire et profiter de la compagnie les uns des autres.☺️

Johanna Palmieri .palmieri (b. 1991) is a painter whose work explores the fusion of figures and abstraction, drawing inspiration from the beauty and contradictions of life. Investigating memory, nostalgia, and the interplay between abstraction and reality, she at times incorporates collage to layer material and meaning. Through evocative compositions, themes of uncertainty, aspiration, and the passage of time emerge, inviting viewers into moments of reflection on the subtle experiences that shape our lives.

Learn about her residency project below…

“During my residency at La Moissie, I’ll be using the time to refine and finalize works for an upcoming solo show. I’m also looking forward to letting the peaceful surroundings do their thing — quieting my mind enough to follow new and unexpected ideas that I wouldn’t normally pursue. It’s a chance to work with both purpose and openness, and I’m excited to see where that balance takes me.”

🇪🇸 Johanna Palmieri (n. 1991) es una pintora cuyo trabajo explora la fusión entre figuras y abstracción, inspirándose en la belleza y las contradicciones de la vida. Investigando la memoria, la nostalgia y la relación entre abstracción y realidad, en ocasiones incorpora collage para superponer materia y significado. A través de composiciones evocadoras emergen temas como la incertidumbre, las aspiraciones y el paso del tiempo, invitando al espectador a reflexionar sobre las experiencias sutiles que dan forma a nuestras vidas.

Descubre su proyecto de residencia a continuación…

“Durante mi residencia en La Moissie utilizaré este tiempo para perfeccionar y finalizar obras para una próxima exposición individual. También tengo ganas de dejar que la tranquilidad del entorno haga su trabajo — calmando mi mente lo suficiente como para seguir nuevas e inesperadas ideas que normalmente no exploraría. Es una oportunidad para trabajar con intención y apertura al mismo tiempo, y me entusiasma descubrir adónde me llevará ese equilibrio.“

From the Fongauffier bridge in Sagelat, we take the fishermen’s path that runs alongside the Nauze. One of our most magical spring walks 🌿

Depuis le pont de Fongauffier, à Sagelat, nous prenons le chemin des pêcheurs qui longe la Nauze. C’est une de nos promenades printanières les plus magiques 🧚🏼

Desde el pequeño puente de Fongauffier, en Sagelat, tomamos el camino de los pescadores que bordea la Nauze, un pequeño riachuelo. Es uno de nuestros paseos primaverales más mágicos ✨
