About
Elijah Davidson is an artist enamoured with the rituals of life. He generally works with paint and print as his main mediums but would classify himself more as a conceptual artist - working with whatever medium his ideas dictate - which has led him to works involving video, sound and installation.
He is influenced by art history, finding solace and inspiration in museums, galleries and places of worship- areas of intentionally combined cultural and historical significance. Specifically, he has spent much time poring over the work of queer artists before him, such as Derek Jarman and Peter Hujar,.
Other Projects
Within the Jardin au Ermine project he acts as curator and artist - he has been enjoying seeing the resident artists pull their ideas together and really delve into the ideas that inspire them. They had their first exhibition in April 2025.
Davidson was a resident at the New York Academy of Art in 2025 during their annual SURP program.
