Seasons is a series of twelve prints and functions as a calendar of seasonal food. Each print shows a fruit or a vegetable that is in season that month or from that month on. April is represented by asparagus, printed on beige paper with green and pink colors. Instead of using the guillotine, each print was trimmed by hand.

Availability of prints is based on the availability of the produce they depict in the local shop where I usually buy food. If the food is not available, the print is "out of season" as well. The fruits and vegetables were determined by the seasonal cycles in Ljubljana, with the exception of December, represented by the Japanese seasonal citrus Dekopon.

All the prints were made by Gal Šnajder at his newly established print house Čiračara in Maribor, Slovenia. Each print is signed and numbered in a limited edition of 15.
