Widely acknowledged as the Father of Philippine Conceptual Art, Roberto Chabet is highly regarded for his experimental works, ranging from sculptures and installations created out of everyday materials and found objects. Chabet’s works often drew on and extended conceptual ideas of relational and serial structures, utilizing materials such as plywood for their association with the rebuilding of Manila after the end of the Second World War, and implying the body of the viewer into an experience of the work in space.
