Selected solo exhibitions include at A Performance Affair in Brussels, Belgium (2019); at Platforms Project Art Fair in Athens, Greece (2019); Orange Magpies Triptych a Moving Public Billboard at Capture Photography Festival in Vancouer (2018); and The Indexical, Alphabetized, Mediated, Archival Dance-a-Thon! at Wil Aballe Art Projects (2016). Siebens’ performances and films have been presented internationally since 1997, most recently at the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art (MELLY) in Rotterdam (2020); the Ann Arbor Film Festival (2020); the IMZ Dancescreen in Wuppertal, Germany (2019); the International Fine Arts Film Festival in Santa Barbara, USA (2019); Thessaloniki Cinedance International in Greece (2019); the San Souci Festival of Dance Cinema in Boulder; The Movimiento en Moviento in Mexico City (2019), among others. Recent group exhibitions include Art in the Seventies: Radical Change at the Morris and Helen Belkin Gallery in Vancouver (2018); Please Don’t Sit on the Furniture at New Media Gallery in New Westminster, BC (2017); and Translating the Archive at Western Front in Vancouver (2016), among many others. In 2019, Siebens has held residencies at the TRII Art Hub in Athens (2019), UNIT/PITT in Vancouver (2016), ACME Studios in London, UK (2011), and more. Siebens holds a BA in Film Production from New York University (1996) and was a graduate from the National Ballet School of Canada in 1990. Evann Siebens is represented by Wil Aballe Art Projects. In 2015, Evann Siebens presented a solo exhibition at BAF called deConstruction - a collection of photographs and moving image works documenting the recent gentrification and urbanization (destruction) of the City of Vancouver. In 2017 Siebens participated in Façade Festival with BAF at the VAG.

Siebens’s lens-based practice considers the body – and its gesture captured in-the-moment or through still or moving image – as an archive. Bodily Frame was first exhibited at BAF as a part of her solo exhibition deConstruction presenting tender observations of the last moments of buildings before demolition, and an acknowledgment of rapily disappearing historical structures. This work is edition 1/5.
