Anysia Nefissi (b. 1991, Paris) lives and works in Saint-Ouen.
Starting from painting as her primary medium, her practice has expanded to encompass sculpture, installation, performative works, and experimental writing — developed through a Master's in research-creation at Paris VIII University, completed in 2026 with distinction and jury congratulations.
Working with symbolic materials and collected objects — water, salt, sugar, plaster, fabrics, photographs — she develops embodied counter-archives and neo-rituals that reactivate erased gestures and interrupted forms of women's knowledge across four heritages: Vendéen, Breton, Kabyle and Tunisian. Through the Amazigh mythological figures of Anzar and Teryel, and the ecofeminist perspectives they open, her work explores the relationships between bodies, territories, and the forces of life.
She has developed two original concepts — transformission and désarchivage (unarchiving)— that structure both her research and her artistic practice.
She is a member of the Non-Étoile collective and artist-run space in Saint-Ouen.
