Jacob McCormack is an inter-disciplinary creative and story-teller based on Wadawurrung land. Using words, photographic practices, music (sound) and movement, he establishes multisensory intersections that evoke subtle disorder and resonance. Colliding in immersive environments, audiences are beckoned into the surreal, subconscious and abyssal space between that which shapes our perception. He intends to provoke curiousity in the cultivation of story through the hybridised expression of intentionality and improvisation.
