ORDER

»Metric Entropy«, the new photo book by Matthias Urban, is a puzzle in itself, yet so simple. It is about controlling chaos, finding order and structure in a sometimes obfuscating world.

May it be some confusing turbulence of an object-loaded scenery, or unpretentious nature showing its many layers all at once - if observed in a peculiar way, they show intriguing patterns, shapes and unexpected importance. Seemingly random in character, those objects and scenes feel like artifacts with purpose and meaning instead of being abandoned and forgotten.

»Metric Entropy« is a calm proposal of how to interpret the assumed obvious differently. It uniquely captures the notion that there are always carefully hidden gems to find in the ordinary, if one is willing to look for it.
