Tanja Vujinović (Tatjana Vujinović Kušej, r.1973), je v Ljubljani živeča vizualna umetnica in umetnica zvoka. Diplomirala je leta 1999 na Akademiji za likovno umetnost v Beogradu in bila gostujoči študent na Akademiji za umetnost v Düsseldorfu. Trenutno je na podiplomskem študiju Filozofije in teorije kulture na Fakulteti za humanistične študije v Kopru.

Njeno delo obsega multimedijske objekte ter zvočna in video dela. Trenutno dela na “Diskretnih dogodkih v hrupnih domenah”, taktilno-soničnih objektih ali okoljih sestavljenih iz več nelinearnih video in zvočnih sistemov, ki rekodirajo dogodke v podatkovne tokove zvočno-vizualnega hrupa.

Deluje v okviru neprofitnega zavoda Exstat - inštitucije za umetniško produkcijo in raziskovanje multimedijske umetnosti. Zavod Exstat razvija delo inštituta Automata, katerega so-ustanoviteljica je bila v letu 2002 Tanja Vujinović in ki ga je konec leta 2006 reorganizirala v Zavod Exstat skupaj z Janom Kušejem.

Njena avdio-vizualna dela in inštalacije so bile razstavljane v številnih galerijah in festivalih, vključno z Muzejem sodobne umetnosti v Denverju, Kunst Palast Muzeju v Düsseldorfu, v Muzeju sodobne umetnosti v Strasbourgu; v galeriji Kunsthaus v Meranu v Italiji in v Mednarodnem forumu Medienturm v Gradcu v Avstriji.
