Chilean Surrealist Roberto Sebastián Matta called images such as this ‘psychological morphologies’ or ‘inscapes,’ explicitations and depiction of his inner psyche through analogy. The amorphous figures in this drawing have no specific identity. Matta was a life-long friend of Peggy Guggenheim, after their introduction in Paris in 1938. He assisted and advised Guggenheim on her museum-gallery Art of This Century in New York, and later visited her in Venice. She exhibited works by Matta several times at Art of This Century in the 1940s.
