Mat COLLISHAW uses illusion and desire to shed light on the perverse superficiality of images. In Skin Flick unidentifiable images unfold on a Victorian table, it is only by looking at them through a metal cylinder set in the centre of the table that the amorphous shapes in movement can be identified as being a bullfighting scene.
