Eden Pereda

Freedom in every sense is what drives my work. It is an important ingredient in stirring up a thrilling life experience for oneself. The freedom to live, be, and love as one chooses is as integral to the human experience as breathing itself. The figures in my work are representations of a personal psychological and spiritual transformation that confront the viewer with emotional and physical intensity. Utilizing loose, vibrant brushstrokes, rhythm, and natural elements, my work has become my agency to subvert societal and patriarchal subjugation and the stranglehold of gender roles and stereotypes.
