On her ultimate MV. With daughter

Rob Hamelijnck and Nienke Terpsma, the artists and editors of Rotterdam-based magazine Fucking Good Art (www.fuckinggoodart.nl) were ‘embedded’ on Maasvlakte for a month during August–September 2009 from where they produced Portscapes_ON AIR Station Maasvlakte.

Comprising a series of audio walks, field recordings and conversations with guests from different disciplines Portscapes_ON AIR Station Maasvlakte was broadcast on Portscapes' website (www.portscapes.nl). Inspired by their camp’s proximity to the pipeline which carries sand from the Yangtzehaven to the future Maasvlakte 2, the editors of FGA approached their endeavour both as inhabitants of an industrial and man-made territory and in relation to the redistribution and displacement of knowledge. Alongside other grand movements of transportation and trade taking place in the port, FGA’s broadcasts took shape through encounters to reflect on the role that art and artists have in other registers of exchange. Starting from the principle that to understand a place one needs to inhabit it, and the question of how to represent a place like Maasvlakte 2 which does not yet entirely exist yet, the editors of FGA also aimed to stimulate discussion about the representation of Dutch landscape. They hope their project can be a pilot for further research residencies.
