Happy spring—brought to you in part by “Hit,” the digital collage you see at the top of this post, by artist Marcos Morales:
Marcos Morales is a graphic designer from Buenos Aires, Argentina currently living in Heidelberg. Most of his work is based on a mix of collage and digital illustration. With an educational background in visual communication and branding, his collages are loaded with structures, meanings and hidden messages.
See Marcos’s website for more. All I will add is: Submit your work with the love and attention you hope it’ll be read with. Be kind and don’t stop fighting for what you believe in. Email dennis@entropymag.org (politely 🙂 ) if you’d like your opportunity to be included on the next Where to Submit list. And thanks for reading Entropy.
