Photograph of Roberto Chabet's installation, View of the Artist's Studio (Left Window, Right Window).
The work was exhibited in '2 of 4,' the second of a series of solo exhibitions by Antonio Austria, Roberto Chabet, Fernando Modesto, and Danny Dalena at Finale Art Gallery, SM Megamall from 20 May - 1 June 1997.
The installation is composed of painted plywood panels, wooden tables, small box-framed paintings, and a book with a photograph of Caspar David Friedrich's painting, View from the Artist's Studio (shown in the photo). It is a continuation of a series of works entitled The Psychopathology of Everyday Life, which was exhibited earlier in 1997 in two simultaneous exhibitions at Finale and West Gallery, SM Megamall.
Chabet wrote, 'The present work examines the artist's studio - ubiquitous as a subject in modernist painting - as an allegory of the unconscious mind and contemplates it as a site for exilic silence, dreams, and sudden, unexpected revelations.'
