Weather Chart

Weather Chart, 2014

banners, light sensitive paint, site specific installation at Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin

A weather chart of Europe displaying sunny weather is printed on two banners of thin fabric. The applied pigments are sensitive to light. As a function of the amount of ultraviolet light the weather chart appears and disappears depending on the daytime, weather conditions, and the duration of exposure to the sun. The forecast of sunny weather turns visible in the very moment sun is shining and hence becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy of a hopefully sunny future.
