While training as an architect in Le Corbusier's studio, Matta started to produce works inspired by the oneiric and the surreal. This biographical element explains Matta’s affirmation: "Painting has one foot in architecture and one foot in the dream.” Without an academic training in the arts, Matta started developing a new style, inspired by close-up photographs of plants and flowers, which nodded to dynamic and morphological interpretations of the concepts of nature and growth. In this drawing, the artist aims at giving his audience a 360 degree overview of the scenes he saw in pictures and landscapes, representing different moments in time within the same picture. This idea is at the base of the concept of “psychological morphology”, an idea which would become fully developed in his practice during the 1940s and Matta defined as “the graphic result of the adaptation of internal energies to obstacles created by the environment”. In the specific case of ‘Untitled', Matta represents a scenario where elements are drawn from human and natural anatomy, while being placed at the intersection between dreams and reality.
