JOSHUA COCKING

  • The principal motivation behind the work and practise of artist Joshua Cocking is a focus on humanist, environmental and technological issues. "Cockings work comes to us as a cautionary tale at the eleventh hour. Seductively and compellingly symbolic, each painting is an urgent, yet deeply encoded disclosure about the precipices we stand on: environmental, social, economic and cultural. Lyrical, fragmentary titles give glimpses of larger narratives, all of it beautiful, all of it aching with potential catastrophe." Dr Sheridan Hart Phd.

    A Melbourne artsist curently based in Western Australia, Cocking has won multiple prize awards including the The Paddington Art Prize, The Black Swan Prize for Portraiture, The Cossack Art Prize, The West Kimberley Art Prize, the Shinju Matsuri Art Prize (2018, 2017, 2011), The Hedland Art Prize, The Lethbridge Art Prize and the Midwest Art Prize. He has also held residencies at the Fremantle Art Centre, Fremantle and Cossack, Western Australia.
