Emilia Tapprest (NVISIBLE.STUDIO) is a visual artist, filmmaker, and design researcher based in Amsterdam. Her work focuses on ‘technologies of perception’: scientific innovations, from the telescope to ubiquitous sensor networks, that deeply reconfigure planetary perception. Her films anchor the cosmic in the hyperreal, staging encounters between alterities that unsettle individual and collective experience. In 2025, she was awarded the Mondiaan Fund’s Artist Basic 4-year grant. She is former fellow of Enter the Hyper-Scientific AiR (EPFL, 2024–25), the Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Amsterdam (2023–24), Rupert AiR (2023), Stimuleringsfonds’ Talent Development program (2021–22), and the Jan van Eyck Academie (2021). She has presented work at international platforms such as the VISIO – European Programme on Artists' Moving Images, Bologna Art City, Vdrome, MU Hybrid Art House, and the National Space Centre Ireland. Tapprest teaches at the Geo-Design MA at Design Academy Eindhoven.
