  • Jess MacCormack, formerly known as Jessica MacCormack and more commonly known as Jess Mac (born 1974 in British Columbia), is a genderqueer interdisciplinary artist whose work deals with the intersection of institutional violence with personal traumas. They work with oppressed communities to create collaborative art that engenders agency, both personal and political. Their recent work covers topics such as criminalization, HIV/AIDS, sexual assault, mental health, racism, and transphobia, and utilize animation, video, painting, and collage. Their art integrates various elements of interactivity, performance, intervention, installation, and video, in order to engage viewers in a meaningful way; at the same time, they aim to destabilize high art and culture in favor of socially and politically engaged content. In exploring and critiquing institutional structures that create systematic oppression, MacCormack’s work is frequently both collective and collaborative. MacCormack shares many of their digital collages and gifs on Facebook under the name "Jess Mac", as well as through their Tumblr account. Some of their notable pieces are: a book entitled The See; an image series entitled Silence = Shutthefuckup; and a documentary project entitled Where we were not Part 1: Feeling Reserved, Alexus’ story. A complete list of their work can be found on their website. (en)
