Tamara Knapp is a multidisciplinary artist from Weimar where she also completed her bachelor's and master's degree in Visual Communications at Bauhaus-University. Before moving to Weimar she trained as a photographer in Heidelberg.

In her work she places great value on interdisciplinarity, so that often related disciplines in art and design meet thematic blocks from (natural-), (human-) scientific fields and become recognizable in their thematic implementation. She seeks her vocation in the creation and documentation of new aspects in the fields of her visual investigations on natural phenomenons  and has been teaching this since 2021 under the "Space for Visual Research" at Bauhaus-University Weimar. Since 2023 she is working in the department of Media and Experiment at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Bielefeld also.
In addition to her teaching, she works as a freelance media artist with her expertise in generative and analogue image creation in cross-media as well as the fields of photographic visuals. In general, she likes to be inspired by inconspicuous, everyday materials and her penchant for the intangible.
