Eden Ariston (she/her) is a Naarm/Melbourne based visual artist, musician & writer. Active in a vast array of creative practices, her current focus is murals.

Eden's mural practice has developed through travel, festival live-painting, and time spent assisting and observing some of Australia's most established muralists. Her curious and observant nature have built an intuitive knowledge of how to respond to the scale and surroundings of a wall with intention. This experience shows in confident line work and a process that is patient, present and deeply responsive to environment. 

Travelling nationally & internationally for work since 2023, Eden's mural practice has taken her to places as contrasting in nature as the colours in her palette; from dense bush & arid paddocks to sleepy suburbs, industrial estates & concrete jungles.  Her brush has met with walls in her hometown of Katherine, N.T., regional VIC (Djilang/Geelong, Torquay, Hamilton, The Grampians, South Gippsland), Naarm/Melbourne, Eora/Sydney, Tarntanya/Adelaide, Mongolia & India. 

Eden’s work is developed between loose sketches, digital design and hand painting. Every project begins as an investigation of the site; its light, its history, the people who'll walk past it every day. Research and observation culminate in the development of symbols, creatures and plant inspired elements that pull stories out of the cracks in the pavement.
