Jemma Woolmore is a New Zealand artist based in Berlin. Her art practice explores the spatial and emotional possibilities of light, sound and image in immersive and performative environments.  She crafts abstract worlds that fluctuate ambiguously in scale between the micro and macro, responding intuitively with sound and environment and blurring the boundaries between real and virtual.  Her practice explores the possibilities for story telling and world building using audio-visual performance and immersive installation. 

Her artwork is shown internationally,  with recent presentations at Gropius Bau Berlin (DE), Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal (CA), Mass MOCA (USA), MIRA festival (ES), Mapping festival (CH), Sonos Studio (USA), Node festival (DE).
