Anne Eder

Artist Statement:

My interdisciplinary work takes place where the natural world meets the narrative impulse, shown through prints, sculpture in various media, and short stories. I am interested in the ways in which nature shapes our core mythologies, folklore, pop culture fictions, and religious beliefs, and in how specific geographies, inclusive of their elemental components, produce discrete narratives. I am an advocate for increased arts access and the creation of public art is a dedicated part of my arts practice.
