Eden Seifu (b. 1996 Boston, Massachusetts, USA) creates paintings that operate similar to folktales: taking absurd, fantastic, surreal, humourous, and unsettling approaches to existential questions of life, journey, and death. Her influences range widely, and include the natural sciences, mysticism, Russian symbolism, comic books, thrift stores, and Mannerist painting. Seifu earned her BA at the University of Washington, and her paintings have been published in the University of Washington Bricolage Journal. She has exhibited at Half Gallery, Los Angeles; Deli Gallery, New York; Arsenal Contemporary, Toronto; and the Center on Contemporary Art, Seattle. Seifu lives and works in Seattle, Washington, USA.
