Entropy
Felipe Abraham
Series description

Entropy reimagines the beginning of order and chaos. It is about the natural forces that operate on Earth; the ability to preserve the status quo versus the power to change, two properties that life possesses. At a time of ecological and political crisis, it presents an almost alien landscape in which human scale is lost and a desire to obtain a broader perspective of the natural world is born. The series continues something of a human tradition by creating immovable fragments that refuse to disappear. It is about things that by their nature are changing constantly.
