Over the years his work has been shortlisted for a number of awards and prizes including the International Celeste Art Prize in 2007, the UK Museums and Heritage Awards for Excellence 2014, and Salon Art Prize 2014. Eland has published two books, 'Diary Rooms - Being Human on the Front Line in Afghanistan' in 2013 and 'Artist on Everest, Being Human at Base Camp' in 2017. He is a regular speaker at festivals and events, including DiaryFest, King's College, London, Open City Documentary Festival, London and the Contemporary Arts Society.
