Weatherness is a plea for multilingualism that could serve as an antidote to the (mental) walls that countries are currently erecting around themselves. The project consists of 60 posters, together forming a 100-metre long colourful ribbon in the (semi-)public space of the Affiche Galerij in The Hague. The texts about the weather and weather conditions that are used act as metaphors of cultural identity and are in various languages. Untranslatable terms make it clear that there are possibilities to perceive the world in a different way. Each language enriches our experience of the world.
