Konstantina featured in 'Ngapa - Living Water' Switzerland Museum show

Konstantina will be officially opening 'NGAPA - Living Water' exhibition in Switzerland which features her work.  Along with writing the essay for the catalogue, she will be giving an artist talk about the importance of water and Country.

EXHIBITION OVERVIEW
For Australian Indigenous peoples, water is regarded as an ancestral, living Being and holds a significant place in their mythical narratives. The Foundation Burkhardt-Felder explores the multifaceted theme of water in its new exhibition NGAPA Living Water.

The nearly forty artworks from its collection of contemporary Aboriginal Art reveal an exceptional variety of artistic expressions. A tranquil ochre painting by Rover Thomas Joolama, a brilliant acrylic by Elizabeth Nyumi Nungurrayi, an intricate composition by Wentja Napaltjarri, a fascinating depiction of glowing salt lakes by Konstantina, and many more highlight the cultural and spiritual connections the artists maintain with the precious element of water.

14 February 2026 - 9 March 2026

Onespace proudly presents Konstantina’s Mudang Butbut in the Lounge Gallery, beautifully closing our exhibition program for the year. This body of acrylic paintings on linen explores trees as metaphors for the living heart – repositories of memory, connection, and resilience. Through her vibrant mark-making, Konstantina translates the language of tree-growth into a visual meditation on identity, sovereignty, and belonging. Each work becomes a living document,  painting traces of the artist’s personal and cultural histories while reflecting universal stories of endurance and renewal for First Nations people. Mudang Butbut invites viewers to reflect on the invisible threads that bind ancestry, land, and the human heart through the enduring resilience of trees.

"Re:Imagined" Impulse Magazine's Editors’ Selects for November 2025 - Standout exhibitions in New York City and beyond.

..."The tactility of the paintings holds a connection to their craft; what constitutes a historical object and what constitutes art is blurred in her work. The abstract and scientific combine, each informing the other and reinventing itself. The paintings recenter the Gadigal people in their history. Konstantina finds a way to communicate the trauma of being dislocated, isolated, and erased by re-engaging with cultural memory and reinterpreting it in a modern context. Millions of miles away from its home, Gadigal culture is being revitalized in the act of recreation."

"Re:Imagined" Review - “Reconnecting with a First Nation’s culture” by Corinna Lotz

RE: Imagined, an exhibition at the JGM gallery, celebrates the culture of the Gadigal people, the original inhabitants of today’s Sydney area of New South Wales who are part of the Eora Nation.

There is a freshness, a feeling of contemporaneity in Konstantina’s expansive canvases and stretched possum skins, stitched with sparkling beads.

2025 Calleen Art Award Winner!

The biggest 24 hrs l've had in a long time!

So many thanks to the Cowra Art Gallery for having my work on display and wonderful patrons Mr & Mrs Fagen who generously support this prize.

I am the 50th winner of Calleen Art Prize and I can't wipe the smile from my face!

To lovely Curator Cassandra, thanks for holding my hand through a very new process for me. To the eloquent Kent Buch thank you for choosing my work!

Willie Weston Collection

For nearly 10 years, Willie Weston has honoured First Nations stories from the most remote corners of Australia, and more recently Naarm (Melbourne), through our fabrics and wallpapers. We are excited to present our latest collection, celebrating the rich heritage of the Gadigal – some of the traditional custodians of Sydney’s harbour region – created in partnership with renowned artist, Kate Constantine.

 Our collection reveals another side to the artist - her delicate, confident line work and sketching.  The collection invites calm reflection, a consideration of the natural world, and a celebration of our coastal regions.

GOSFORD ART PRIZE

Konstantina has been announced as a Finalist in this year's Gosford Art Prize for the painting "Murrira" (pronounced moor- reere).

Murrira is the Gadigal word for line or chorded string usually made from native Hibiscus or Kurrajong bark.

This work is inspired by the re-making of our original Gadigal practises based on a multi-year project with the @britishmuseum . The artwork is made at the same time as I learn to make the original traditional chord and so contains the ancient practise and wisdom of the Culture of my people. It is a physical annotation, a remembering of this Culture and therefore a conduit to the past from the present.
