Coloured Skins
"Coloured Skins" by Gilbert & George is a large-scale multi-panel work composed of twelve gelatin silver prints, showcasing the duo's signature grid-based photographic format. The piece explores themes of identity, race, and the human body through stark, graphic imagery rendered in bold tones. True to their practice, Gilbert & George position themselves within the work, using their own figures alongside fragmented skin textures to challenge social and cultural boundaries.
