He has twice been a finalist in the Leica/Centre for Contemporary Photography award (Australia), in 2003[2] and 2005[3].

Photography

While based in Shanghai from 2006 until 2012 his commissions included Time[5], Forbes[6] and The Australian Financial Review Magazine[7]. He also undertook a project entitled Shanghai's ‘burbs, documenting the vast suburban sprawl of Shanghai, which featured in the Photographic Museum of Humanity[8]. Since returning to Australia he has been a frequent contributor to the Weekend Australian Magazine[9] and shot numerous productions for Black Swan State Theatre Company, including coproductions with the National Theatre of China[10] and Sydney Theatre Company[11]. His most recent photographic work has involved documenting the social effects of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic for the State Library of Western Australia[12][13].

Since 2012, Gostelow has directed a number of short films - experimental, documentary and fictional narratives. Several have appeared at film festivals in Australia, including Down the Wrong Path, which premiered at the 2018 Revelation Perth International Film Festival[14]. A selection of his films are held in the State Library of Western Australia heritage collection.[15]
