Emilia Tapprest (NVISIBLE.STUDIO) is a visual artist, filmmaker and design researcher based in Amsterdam. Her work explores scientific innovations that reshape planetary perception. Driven by an urge to ground the cosmic in the hyperreal, her films stage thresholds where encounters between alterities erupt deep changes in individual and collective psyches. This inquiry advances through 'ambitopian' worldmaking, involving design-anthropological interventions, expert engagements, and cinematic prototyping towards immersive presentation formats. Previous fellow of the Enter the Hyper-Scientific AiR at EPFL in Lausanne (2024-2025), the Institute for Advanced study at UvA (2023-2024), Rupert AiR (2023), Stimuleringsfonds’ Talent Development program (21-22) and the Jan van Eyck academy (2021), her projects have been presented at international platforms such as VISIO European Programme on Artists' Moving Images, Bologna Art City, Vdrome, MU Hybrid Art House and the National Space Centre Ireland. Tapprest is tutor at the Geo-Design MA at the Design Academy Eindhoven.
