Code pervades every corner of our existence. In our daily routines, we encounter it ceaselessly, even acting as its bearers. It serves as a system of identification for nearly every facet of the world. Whether we observe the myriad barcodes etched on store products, the geographic coordinates guiding our journeys, the enigmatic QR codes enciphered on our mobile devices, or the mystifying DNA codes that make us unique, code is omnipresent. Text, photographs, and other informational content are translated into sequences of zeros and ones, stored within digital storage systems. Similar to the codes that structure our technological universe, there exists a cultural code, a national code. This cultural unconscious is not always articulated, nor easily apprehended, yet it manifests itself in our daily conduct. The collection bears two colors, yellow-blue, and incorporates a diverse array of codes.
