Priscila Fernandes
Director of landfall and initiator of Kunstwerk Kolderveen.
Priscila Fernandes' work – installations, painting, photography, books – is rooted in an ongoing research into education, play, and the dialectics of work and leisure. Through a speculative and fictional approach, her work raises concrete questions about the idea of individual and collective freedom, especially in the context of the widespread precariousness of work in our society.
Priscila has a decade of experience in running an art in residency program at Het Wilde Weten in Rotterdam, as well as Heads of Department of BEAR, the Fine Art BA of ArtEZ University of the Arts, in Arnhem.

Edward Clydesdale Thomson
Director of landfall and initiator of Kunstwerk Kolderveen.
Wandering through forests, heaths or gardens, sailing on seas and brooks, by boat, by raft or digitally, deep into history and creating visions of the future, Edward Clydesdale Thomson is always searching. It is not about finding one specific thing, but about the process of exploring and learning, time and again, and never doing the same thing twice.
Edward has experience in running an art in residency program at Het Wilde Weten in Rotterdam, as well as Heads of Department of BEAR, the Fine Art BA of ArtEZ University of the Arts, in Arnhem.

Joakim Derlow
Illustration & Research
Joakim focus on illustration and research. As a visual artist the work is a road and he follow it, leaning onto my pen similar to a walking stick. Poking in the ditches, feeling holes in the asphalt and crossing puddles with a leap. Ideas are given associative or suggestive form through the sequential or the fragmented. His sketches lay out a path of lines followed by others. A journey taken together and manifested in digital or analogue form.

Nicoline Goris
Educational program
Nicoline Goris is a multidisciplinary visual artist and art educator. Her work explores processes and systems that surprise and arouse her curiosity. She is an investigative artist who enjoys delving into backgrounds, materials, and philosophy. The relationship between humans and non-humans and their environments is often central to her work. She removes objects from their context and repositions them, thereby questioning their relationship and background. Her work process usually begins with material or concept, exploring and bringing together different perspectives. Ecology, engagement, and philosophy are key elements of her artistic practice. As an art educator, she has been affiliated with Into Nature, Xplosief, and Drukkerijmuseum Meppel, among others. She has worked at Drents Museum de Buitenplaats and currently works as an education officer and museum educator at Museum de Fundatie.
