Opera di Surya Vaidyanathan

Pen and Ink, Digital
Description
Equilibrium: a condition of equal balance between opposing forces
Entropy: a measure of the level of disorder in a changing system
In physics, equilibrium is believed to be the final state of any system, what will one day be the final state of the universe. However, the more we study the world around us, we see equilibrium move into a state of entropy. Balances are formed and dissolve into chaos, only to be reborn again. This extends from our minds and emotions, to nature, to history and politics and great cities, to the universe and beyond.
There is no final state. Chaos is a state of being.
