Entropy

Artworks in connection with subject „entropy” were exhibited in 2011 in Gallery IX.

It was immediately!
And I was not ready.
Anyway, I had to improvise.
Quite a long time I am dealing with theoretical physics with its aesthetic and sociological aspects in particular for th 21st century. I beleive that: the results of physics influence our life. (Think about the GPS!)

I have two favorites ones: the black holes and the second law of thermodinamics which define fundamental physical quantities including the entropy.

Whether it is possible to visualize these phenomena?

The black hole phenomenon is almost impossible challenge, but the entropy seems very simple. Around us the tactile, visible, audible, smelt and taste world are all entropic. That’s why the entropy is still the most stable law of the physics. We can perceive the entropy every day, but we got used to it. We don’t think about it however the passing is floating in front of our eyes.

As a visual artist I attempt to visualize the entropy. I had an idea to take and put turf, potting soil, stainless iron in the exhibition place hoping for the nature. The nature is passing in direction of entropy. And I built installation around these with geometrical forms. The grass has grown, the mushrooms came out from the ground, the rust starts to live its life.

The entropy became visible. Everything is moving on in direction of incoordination, – As my dear teacher mentioned: in direction of the total destraction. In that time I was so frightened and I interpret the entropy as a total quietus. (After just realized that: this is the truth.) Every phenomenal process in the nature is passing, the tendency of the natural processes to lead towards the death, even the black holes as well. (Stephen Hawking proved: if the quantity of black hole is smaller, its temperature is bigger. When the black hole loses weight, its temperature and particulate emission increases as well as losing weight is getting faster.)

Is there anything else beyond the entropy?

I don’t think so. This is the final state where the university/Universe finds the eternal resting place.

I invite twelve artists who deal with the „order in the chaos” in their artworks.
