Signs, Symbols and Ciphers: Decoding the Message

How does a sign represent something other than itself? How do we come to understand the meaning of a written symbol? What happens when a sign crosses international borders of language and culture? Can clothes constitute a sign? Can colours? This work explores the world of symbols.
