Ivna Esajas is a Netherlands-based artist whose practice gained significant institutional recognition with her selection as the winner of the 13th ABN AMRO Art Award. This accolade, designed to support female artists, includes a grant, a professional publication, and the acquisition of her work for the ABN AMRO Art Collection.
Her work is characterized by collaborative approaches, as evidenced by her exhibition Wayward Lines. Consent Not to Be a Single Being, which features contributions from artists including Siomara Ratna van Bochove, Sondi, and Jaasir Linger. The project, curated by Amal Alhaag, explores complex thematic inquiries through a multidisciplinary lens.
Esajas has received significant institutional support, including a solo exhibition at the ABN AMRO Art Space and a major presentation at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam in 2026. Her recent projects are documented in a publication designed by the Irma Boom Office.
