Visual Arts

REP

Docked in Paris's Port d'Arsenal, the Lisa Belle is a péniche artspace where social practice art, activism, and connection meet. We bring together participatory creation, community action, and convivial gatherings to stage encounters that challenge social structures and resonate intersubjectively.


We center voices marginalized by the mainstream art economy, creating space for activists, thinkers, and artists to engage through experimental works that speak to real struggles while imagining and building alternatives. Here, laughter, grief, and joy are not sidelines to political work, but essential engines.


We run on a sharing ecosystem: the space is free for all to use, sustained by those who use it. Our model is built on mutual care and actively redistributing creative power. Lisa Belle is a vessel for reimagining futures built on care and collective power. Our work is to make the revolution irresistible.
