Martijn Veldhoen
Martijn Veldhoen studied at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam.
Veldhoen works primarily as a video artist and realized a number of monumental art commissions with a multimedia character. The projects he has worked on in recent years can be interpreted as video installations, but also increasingly as experimental short films and documentaries.
His films received several international awards at exhibitions and festivals. He was nominated twice for a Golden Calf and once for an IFFR award for his film Time and Place, a conversation with my mother: www.vpro.nl/tijd-en-plaats. In 2024, his film Artemis won an award at the Fauna Festival in Mexico and was nominated at the International Wildlife Film Festival Rotterdam and the NYC Independent Film Festival.
Veldhoen is currently working on a short fiction film constructed from purely documentary footage.
