About Edward

Every sale pays Edward directly.A meaningful share of each purchase goes to the artist.

Edward Muren III is an American muralist and sculptor whose practice bridges the gap between digital design and industrial craftsmanship. After studying graphic design and 3D animation at the Illinois Institute of Art in Chicago, he spent two decades in Tucson, Arizona, before returning to Illinois. This movement between the High Desert and the Midwest informs his approach to public art and structural installation. Muren’s work is defined by its material versatility, ranging from large-scale murals like the "Bad Ash" in Oregon, Illinois, to intricate metalwork. Utilizing plasma-cut steel and cast bronze, he creates both public landmarks and functional pieces, including custom chimineas and fountains. His practice remains rooted in regional themes, often translating natural forms into enduring, structural statements.

Visual voice

Muren’s aesthetic merges the bold presence of public murals with the raw, tactile quality of industrial metalwork. His work focuses on regional wildlife and natural motifs, rendered through technical processes like plasma cutting and bronze casting to create a sense of structural weight.
