Robert Gie. is a carpenter until 1908, when he is hospitalized in a psychiatric institution at Rosegg due to hallucinatory disorders. From 1916 on, becoming increasingly reclusive, he devotes himself feverishly to drawing on walls or on bits of paper he manages to salvage. His drawings are characterized by complex networks of cables that penetrate the figures, crossing through them and extending into others.
