Photograph of Roberto Chabet's Dreams: 100 Years at West Gallery. The work, together with The Four Directions at Finale Art Gallery, is part of an extended diptych that were exhibited simultaneously at Finale and West Galleries, SM Megamall from 29 March - 9 April 1999.
Dreams: 100 Years at West Gallery is a space-specific installation that anthologises images and objects (alphabet blocks, snare drums, crowbar, conch shell, and a painting based on a photograph of Joseph Cornell's shelves) used in the artist's earlier series titled The Interpretation of Dreams (1995).
The Four Directions at Finale Art Gallery is a large-scale, four-panel, heavily painted work in-laid with harmonicas. The work is inspired by an Allen Ginsberg poem titled On Cremation of Chogyam Trungpa, Vidyadhara. The four colours used in the paintings - yellow, white, green, and red - are based on the colors of the Tibetan flag.
