Eden Hall is a New Mexico–based author and sculptor whose work is shaped by our complex and often troubled relationships with land, loss, and one another. She writes lyrical, character-driven fiction that explores life’s rawest elements, carrying them through genres and letting them rest in the most unlikely places.

Her sculpture examines the intersection of the manmade and the natural world, using process-based metaphors to illuminate our fraught relationship with the planet.

Eden lives off grid on a remote ranch in Catron County, New Mexico, with her husband, horses, and dogs. She devotes her time to homesteading, the arts, family, hunting, fishing and exploring wild lands on her mustang mare, Elowen.

She could, and has, listened to the Dire Straits all day. Some of her favorite books are West with the Night, Beryl Markham, Bell Canto, Anne Patchett, and The Sun Also Rises, Earnest Hemmingway. She feels she owes sculptor, Deborah Butterfield, a great debt of gratitude for paving the way for all women artists who celebrate horses for what they really are.
