Henrik Nieratschker works as an independent artist and designer as well as curator and researcher involved in various cultural and academic projects.
His artistic work and research engages with the sociopolitical entanglements of technologies. He employs media-based formats to develop critical, reflective narratives that take the shape of installations, objects, videos, websites and books. Henrik combines practical, methodical approaches from design with intuitive, research-based art production to provoke insights that could hardly form within other contexts.
Henrik has lived and worked in Bremen, London, Cape Town, Portland, and Kyoto, and is a founding member of collective and label Research and Waves, organizing vinyl releases, exhibitions and events at the intersections of sound art, conceptual art and artistic research while exploring ways of working in solidarity and multiperspectively within the cultural sphere.
Since 2020 Henrik is pursuing a practice-based PhD as part of the Binational Artistic-PhD Programm at the University of Arts Bremen (GER) and PhDArts at Universiteit Leiden and KABK in The Hague (NL). He is a research fellow at University of Arts Bremen, where he also works as a visiting lecturer in media theory and media design.
