Entropic is a group show of new collage and assemblage curated by Peter Dellert. Six local and national artists using collage, painting, and sculpture explore the themes of order and disorder. They use materials from recycled text, old vinyl records, onion skin and wasp nest, colored papers, drawings on mylar, and painting to interpret the meaning of entropy, βthe breakdown or disorganization of any system.β This is in response to when current political and ecological systems and sometimes personal connections become increasingly dysfunctional.
