Corentin Laplanche Tsutsui

Corentin Laplanche Tsutsui studied at ENSAD (Paris) and the China Academy of Art (Hangzhou). In 2019, he moved to Marseille, where he is currently completing a PhD in research-creation (ENSP-AMU). Between 2021 and 2023, he was a resident artist at Artagon Marseille. He was a recipient of the AIC grant from the DRAC PACA (2022), the Fondation des Artistes (2024), and Mécènes du Sud (2025).

His practice is a composite of various visual arts (films, installations, photo-objects, texts). It falls within the field of research-creation and draws on theoretical approaches that he intersects with personal experiences. He contributes to contemporary discourse on the livability of global cities and their spatial-planning policies. His projects offer narratives that are both historical and speculative, through spatial and material storytelling. Since 2024, he has been collaborating on a project with artist Fredj Moussa, in which they explore territories as cultural productions.
