Shifting Weathers is an exhibition at Villa Heike Kunstverein that engages with weather, climate, and imaging technologies. While climate is made visible in public discourse through technical images, measurements, and forecasts, it is also effective through slow processes that elude our immediate perception. The exhibition project understands weather as an ongoing condition that shapes perception, sensation, and temporality. Featuring works by Susanne Kriemann, Jasmijn Visser (with Ingmar König), and Luiz Zanotello, it directs attention to the complex conditions underlying the mediated communication and interpretation of weather and climate. Above all, the exhibition demonstrates how artistic practices beyond catastrophe imagery open up new perspectives on the multilayered nature of climate.
