Access>Code>Kernal

The exhibition of the completed terms Access, Code and Kernal went on display at Access Space in Sheffield on July 6th, and can be seen there until the end of the month. What surprised me was the different character of each term. The Access patches were stitched onto a curtain which either allows or prevents access to a space, by Abi Nielsen. Whilst the Access Space group pinned their patches onto a long stretch of black fabric, looking more like temporary flags in a public space than a permanent fixture. On the right, the Code quilt stitched at Bletchley Park hangs in formal splendour.
