Chloe Paré (b. 1996, Athens) is an artist and researcher, who explores the materialities and interactivities of visual arts. Through workshops, installations, and art books, Paré facilitates spaces of entanglements with beings, matters, and architecture. She has realized workshops in collaboration with art spaces, schools, and healthcare organizations, such as the KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin, Eyes of Light in Athens, and Immigration Museum Tokyo. She has been part of multiple research programs and residencies, including #OccupyAtopos and visions4people – Artistic Research Meets Psychiatry. As of 2023, Paré is doing her Ph.D. research in the department of Global Arts – Art Studies, and Curatorial Practices in Tokyo University of the Arts, focusing on how art workshops stimulate polyphonic environments through agential materiality. She currently lives and works in Tokyo.
