Exhibition — Mar 7 until Jun 7, 2026

Ivna Esajas is the winner of the ABN AMRO Art Award 2025 and will present a solo exhibition at the Stedelijk. From March 7, 2026, Esajas presents the exhibition Wayward Lines. Consent Not To Be a Single Being.

Ivna Esajas’s work operates at the intersection of drawing and painting. Her figures merge into one another, forming temporary connections that are both fragile and resilient. Her practice is characterized by a continuous shifting of perspectives. In a poetic and playful manner, she raises questions about our interconnectedness and our relationship to history. In this spirit, the exhibition is conceived as a call-and-response, in which different makers each let their voices be heard from their own positions. The exhibition is curated by Amal Alhaag.

The ABN AMRO Art Award is organized and initiated by ABN AMRO.
