Eden Mulholland (Ngati Uepohatu, Aotearoa) is one of Australasia’s most respected and prolific
composers and producers for theatre, film, and contemporary dance.
Currently based in Queensland, Eden’s background as a gifted contemporary dancer, together
with his ongoing career as a recording artist, means his work not only spans multiple disciplines
but also meets the challenges involved in transcending or transgressing conventional genre
boundaries.
Eden is well known and sought after for his unusual mix of disciplined focus combined with
creative freedom, a balancing act which allows for collaborative improvisation and risk taking
when exploring and developing new works.
Eden has received numerous arts festival and commercial sound design awards and is a founding
member of the acclaimed Movement of the Human, a multi-disciplined, project-based collective
known for their striking and thought provoking work.
