Creswick (b.1990) is an Australian multidisciplinary artist working across music, videography and photography.
Spanning contemporary music, documentary, live performance and visual storytelling, his artistic practice explores human connection, emotion and story, through cinematic and deeply collaborative works.
Alongside his musical practice, Creswick has established himself as a sought-after visual creative, producing photography and video works for organisations and institutions including National Gallery of Australia, Australian National University, University of Canberra, The Street Theatre and Canberra Theatre Centre. His work has appeared in publications including the Sydney Morning Herald, Limelight Magazine, Australian Arts Review, Australian Financial Review and Canberra Times.
Recent interdisciplinary collaborations include projection and video design works with Australian Dance Party and Luminescence Chamber Singers. He is currently developing Channels: Artists on Ageing Creatively, a hybrid documentary and live music work exploring how creativity evolves and deepens across a lifetime through intimate portraits of celebrated Australian artists.
Following the release of his debut jazz album to critical acclaim, including a four-star review in The Australian, Creswick relocated to New York City in 2014, where he worked and performed alongside leading international musicians including Kris Bowers, Chad Lefkowitz-Brown and Brad Williams, and studied under Grammy Award-winning vocalist Kurt Elling. During this period he performed at renowned New York venues including Blue Note Jazz Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Bitter End and Rockwood Music Hall.
Returning to Australia in 2015, Creswick performed with James Morrison and the James Morrison Big Band at The Basement Sydney and the Twilight at Taronga concert series. In 2018 he launched the jazz project Creswick, releasing a self-titled EP featuring guitarist Nir Felder and saxophonist Troy Roberts. Written in response to the Syrian refugee crisis, the work combined modern jazz composition with lyrical storytelling and cinematic atmosphere.
