Theresa Baumgartner is a Berlin-based visual artist whose practice expands across audiovisual performance, large-scale installations, and experimental film. Influenced by experimental sound, punk culture, and painterly as well as sculptural approaches, she creates work defined by raw energy, material experimentation, and an unfiltered sense of immediacy. Her environments often immerse viewers in altered worlds shaped through light, shadow, and spatial manipulation, prompting them to reconsider how they perceive presence, absence, and narrative.

Her recent projects include contributions to After Images at the Julia Stoschek Foundation, where pieces such as Waiting for the Engineer,The Breaking, and If I Must Die, You Must Live to Tell My Story used light as an expressive medium to contemplate erasure, memory, and disrupted storytelling. Baumgartner co-founded Bestfilmsforever (BFF), a collective that supports FLINTA* and LGBTQIA+ professionals in the tech and film sectors, advocating for equity and representation. Through her diverse projects, she continues to reshape how visual art engages with sound, movement, and emerging technologies, crafting experiences that leave a lasting emotional and sensory impact.
