Medium: Oil and mixed media
Eden is an emerging contemporary artist currently based in SC. Having grown up in an environment that did not foster creativity, emotion, or outspokenness, her creations have become her primary form of communication with the world.
Her work depicts striking representations of primarily black women, and children inhabiting colorful abstract scenes. Her work focuses on telling stories of love, trauma, healing, and the vast emotions tied into the human journey. Her work acts as a poetic documentary of what it means to be human.
She uses oil paint to combine an essentially “realist” approach to the human figure with a collage of "surreal" mixed media abstracts, and backgrounds. Primarily using shades of blue, purple, and pink. She infuses the rawness of abstract with her love of traditional academic art to create an art language that authentically reflects who she is at her core.
