Siegfried Contemporary is delighted to present Carmine Ashes, Ann Iren Buan's first solo exhibition in the UK.
Ann Iren Buan (b. 1984, Oslo) explores themes of decay, material transformation and renewal through drawing and sculpture. Working with materials including dry pastel, paper, plaster and metal, she extends drawing into three-dimensional form, creating tactile works that balance monumentality with fragility. Her practice investigates the materiality of drawing, the emotional and atmospheric potential of colour, and the tension between surface and structure.
