Tatjana Macic is a visual artist, writer and researcher based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

She is deploying her artistic practice as an agency to explore the intersection between visual art, theory, exhibition-making, education and language. Her research resembles the alchemic laboratory, exploring the miraculous and the theoretical. Her work poses an array of questions often revolving around rhizomatic points of departure regarding current and historic discourses. She works in a variety of media such as lecture-performances, installations, artistic archives, interventions in public space, painting, internet art and graphic novels.

Work is shown both in independant and established spaces, including at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, the Venice Biennale Collateral Events, Tate Modren, the Gallery of Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo, The Wrong Biennale, KunstVlaai and de Appel in Amsterdam.
In her writing practice she explores the innovation of language, the voice, the science fiction and the power of image in the context of language. She relates thereby poetry and prose to the visual language or to the spatial installations.

She is a tutor and lecturer of artistic research at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. Since 2017 she is a researcher at PlatformBK and since 2019 a member of the artistic committee at artist in residence airWG in Amsterdam.

Recently Tatjana founded Urgent Matters / Srettam Tnegru - an initiative for art and research which questions conditions for artistic practice and critical thinking.

She received a BFA from ArtEZ Institute of the Arts. And an MFA with honours in Theory and History of Contemporary Art from the University of Amsterdam.
