“Perhaps everybody has a Garden of Eden, I don't know; but they have scarcely seen their garden before they see the flaming sword. Then, perhaps, life only offers the choice of remembering the garden or forgetting it. Either, or: it takes strength to remember, it takes another kind of strength to forget, it takes a hero to do both.”
- James Baldwin
— ••Manifesto ••—
Eden’s Muse is a quest of reclamation and celebration of our connection to Mother Nature. It's a promise to peer within our own nature and to be honored and surprised at what we find. Where inner and outer nature becomes one as we forsake our pain. Eden is a retreat from the industrial and capitalized society.
Eden is where we restore our balance within the ecosystem, make peace with the land. Eden is where we undo the destruction that comes from man. Eden is the garden
where we water seeds of healing dreams of a new world.
Within Eden, the boundaries between self and the environment dissolve, and past, present, and future selves collide. Eden is the cocoon in which identity sheds, and is born anew. And I can never be tamed by any absolute truths. In Eden, I become The Ape. The Moth. The Frog.The Escape.The one with all that is encompassing.
To look within is to understand my own nature. I climb the vines of my ancestral lines to fill the holes of the history from which I came. In Eden my origin redeems as I become the muse in which Eden revives. And peace will never cease. It is the forgotten parts of ourselves, we dream to release. It is the inner dreams of natural paradise for the sake of modern society. To muse of Eden is to celebrate and embody nature’s supreme expression.
Eden's Muse is built upon the reverence of natural forms and functional pottery. We cherish raw materials to inspire and engage in a sustainable lifestyle. Eden's Muse bridges between geology, utility, and natural beauty.
