In a public area of the Art Projects section Julia Vogl will be presenting her project PREDICTING – The London Winter Weather. With coloured ribbons referencing different types of weather the artist will invite the fairs visitors to participate in the project by making their own weather prediction for winter in London and placing a ribbon on the installation.
