Anja
SIEGNER
'NAM'
Siegner is a painter & collagist, born in Hanover (Germany), growing up also in France and South Africa. Anja now lives and works in Augsburg (Germany).
Her mother was born in Hanoi (Vietnam) and grew up in a refugee camp before coming to France. This heritage is reflected in Anja’s poetic blurry imagery based on old black & white photographs without identity, opening up space for imagination and all-encompassing associations.
Anja has completed her fine arts studies at the Art Academy "Kunsthochschule Berlin Weißensee", with Prof. Antje Majewski and graduated with a Diploma Alumnus, followed by studies at the University of Arts "Universität der Künste Berlin" (UDK) with Prof. Leiko Ikemura with the honour of the master degree "Meisterschüler" in 2013.
