Natural Selection, by Alex Dorfsman, is a visual narrative based on a personal interpretation of the creation and evolution of the elements that make up the Earth and the universe. The images in this book describe these elements metaphorically from everyday situations and objects captured photographically.
The sequence of the book was created by emulating a process of natural selection in which different but similar species interact through formal analogies. The photographs are presented as a kind of taxonomic classification, or as a contemporary cabinet of curiosities; which allows us to know the world and, from that, to reconstruct our own worlds, to tell by means of what we select, to order from chaos, giving a structure to reality in order to see it in different ways.
