Dirk de Waal is a multi-skilled media professional, event producer, experiential curator and sustainable fashion scholar with vast industry experience spanning over 18 years.

He has a deep passion for exploring theory and ways to bridge practice and theory within the fashion and entertainment industries, primarily focusing on sustainable, inclusive, and regenerative practices within these industries. His academic interests and research focus on sustainability as an ontological way of being, considering DIY activities and behaviours as an approach within a design praxis to foster a greater connection between an object and the user-maker.
