Henrique Fernandes has a degree in double bass from the Escola Superior de Música e das Artes do Espetáculo (School of Music and Performing Arts) and works alongside his classical training in the areas of improvisation and experimental music. He was one of the most dynamic driving forces behind the development of the Porto scene since the turn of the millennium, collaborating and playing with numerous improvisers and groups such as Mécanosphère, Stealing Orchestra, Três Tristes Tigres, Estilhaços, John Zorn's Cobra, Damo Suzuki and Fritz Hauser.

In recent years, he has concentrated his work on building new instruments and creating sound works that he develops collectively with Sonoscopia, an association of which he is a founding member and with which he has performed in several European countries, South America and the United Arab Emirates. As a creator, he focuses on the sonic detail of objects and materials, developing works where sound is reinforced by a strong visual component. In this area, his pieces for all ages "INsono" and "Futurina", the luminous and electromagnetic exploration "Draper Point" and the underwater immersion "Sublumia" stand out.
