FourTimesSix
Twenty-four solar terms in the Chinese calendar
PROJECT BACKGROUND
Each of the twenty-four solar terms in a year corresponds to a different climate change and the growth of all things. Through accumulation of wisdom and knowledge, People in the ancient times named solar terms according to climatic characteristics and some special phenomena. At that time, they did not only see the beauty of the changes in the four seasons, but also the changes in the production and life of the twenty-four solar terms in the four seasons. Sadly, the twenty-four solar terms do not seem to have much effect on the lives of modern people.

The screen of the twenty-four Solar terms is made by risograph, whereas the unique bright colors of risograph are used to create a fusion of history, culture and times, which is evocative of the twenty-four solar terms and scenery.
