Ivan Henriques

Ivan Henriques works at WDKA since 2016.

Henriques is an artist, researcher and tutor at the Digital Craft course and the Living Station, with a vast experience in interdisciplinary practices which includes art/design/engineering/science, with a critical approach to how we have been dealing with the natural environment. At WDKA Henriques is implementing sustainability in the academy curriculum, based on system thinking and making.

Henriques has a background in the combination of art & science, and his interests go from symbiosis of the living with the non-living, communication with other specimens to bio-robotics. He considers nature as an inspiration and a necessary force and knowledge to shift the human-centered development of the technological world.

Henriques believes that education is the main pillar for the development of a sustainable world where we educate ourselves and help students make ecological decisions.
