Weerkas is an ironic commentary on changing weather patterns in the Netherlands. Each image illustrates a specific geographic location in one of the Netherlands? twelve provinces, in one month of the year. The drawings express a shift in weather conditions, and speculate the social and economic implications of climate change on the Dutch landscape. The small Weerkas interventions act as a didactic ?follies?, expressing the increasing disparity between historic, normative climate cycles and emerging weather conditions. These weather anomalies will have a dramatic affect on the country?s economic and cultural future.

These projected drawings are afforded new spatiality in Vienna, re-drawing the images to a new space, for a new time. In this evolving operative capacity, the drawings are actualized, not as images of architectural forms in the landscape, but as architectural lines forming space.

JOHAN VOORDOUW is a registered architect (ARB, UK) and Assistant Professor at the Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism at Carleton University, Ottawa. He studied his Bachelor of Environmental Design, Architecture at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, and completed his graduate studies at the Bartlett School of Architecture in Unit 20 under the tutelage of Dr. Marjan Colletti and Dr. Marcos Cruz. He has practiced and taught in the United Kingdom, Canada and the Netherlands. Johan?s work has been extensively published and exhibited including the Silver Linings exhibition in Vienna (2015), ?Urban by Nature? at the International Architecture Biennale in Rotterdam (2014), the Royal Academy Summer Show in London (2010 & 2011), the Venice Architecture Biennale (2010), and Digital Architecture: Passages through Hinterlands in London (2009). Johan?s research by design interests are related to digital design practice, and their connection to emerging modes of architectural representation and hybrid fabrication techniques. His theoretical interests study how these new digital design ideas are contextualized within established fields of architectural theory.
