Arnolfini Gallery, Bristol, until 9 September

‘Entropy’ is an intriguing exhibition of film and computer images that is worth a visit. Ivan Bakst’s time-lapse animation, and the reworkings of stills into abstract designs turns the process of death and decay into something that has a strange if macabre beauty…

There was a photograph – a dead fox with its teeth pulled into a rictus snarl, the eyes fallen in. She checked the date: 1999. The second cutting was another review of the same exhibition. Tina read it. This review was dismissive. An obsession with death…cliché…gratuitous detail…

She looked at West, who shook his head. They didn’t mean anything to him. She turned them over. On the back, someone had scribbled: J – thought you might be interested. J? Jonathan Massey? She made a note to follow it up, and another to chase up the details of Cara’s arrival in the flat, then went back to her search through the paperwork. There was nothing else.
