Skin on Skin (Colour Correction) by Kate Constantine – Original work on canvas; acrylic paint
600 X 600 X 50mm

January 2019

When you fix a mistake, you make a correction, a change that rights a wrong. When you correct a misspelled word, you’ve made a correction. Well done! Correction also applies to punishment, which is another way to right a wrong. A correction is an improvement or a revision when there’s something that needs to be fixed.

Konstantina known for powerful use of colour has put together a series of work that annotates today’s political and socio-political environment from her perspective as an Aboriginal woman, mother and activist.

Each work plays on a double entendre based on typically European interpretations of words, though uses colour to counter that European meaning and provide an Aboriginal context.

This work is extremely personal and emotive. It is meaningful on a number of levels, whilst boasting a playfulness that takes the sting out of the messages Konstantina delivers the viewer.

DIDACTIC:

Skin-on-Skin is a well-known practise for first contact between Western babies & their mother’s at birth; here I’ve exacerbated the colours of the most iconic skin tones around the world and has used them to tell a different story altogether, one of harmony when skin colours are united in hope.
