Zoe Xuji

Zoe Xuji Edema is the co-founder and director of Muralisto, a social enterprise centered around public art, murals, and community engagement.

As an artist, Zoe uses bright colours and patterns to evoke a sense of joy and abundance. Her works are collaborative in nature and often stem from co-design workshops with schools and community groups. Zoe’s intention is to cultivate creative spaces where people feel welcome and safe to express and explore their own artistic voice. “Our workshops can get messy, they can be spontaneous and playful, and at the same time deeply meaningful and confidence building for all those involved”.

The foundations of Muralisto are built upon community art-based development principles using strength-based asset strategies. The heartbeat of Muralisto is connection through co-creation. This mission imbues Zoe’s work, art, and business acumen with purpose and vision. Zoe’s fluency in both the art and business world enables her to bridge different stakeholders and industries to collaborate on creative projects that increase belonging, empower communities, and activate shared city spaces.
