Joshua Yeldham

Drawing from a deep spiritual affiliation with the land and a reverential love of nature, Joshua Yeldham’s art practice forms a complex interplay between narrative and myth, imagination and experience. Working across painting, photography, drawing and sculpture, the artist has developed a singular aesthetic that often conflates these various mediums. His distinctive visual language fuses the physical elements of the landscape with the metaphysical modalities of history and mythology.. 

‍In 2017 he was awarded the prestigious Nancy Fairfax Artist Residency at Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Arts Centre that culminated in a critically acclaimed survey exhibition. Yeldham has been a finalist in numerous prestigious awards including the Wynne Prize, Sulman Prize, Salon des Refusés and Mosman Art Prize and in 2015 he participated in the London Art Fair, ART15. He has won The Salon des Refusés People's Choice Award twice drawing critical acclaim. Yeldham’s work is held in many important collections including the National Gallery of Victoria, Mosman Art Gallery, Manly Art Gallery and Museum, Australian Stock Exchange, University of Wollongong and BHP Billiton Collection, as well as numerous private collections in Australia and overseas.
