Rafaela Pandolfini will be holding an Open Studio this coming Sunday 13 May 2012. The focus will be on a three part video and  Cockatoos Headdress.

‘Cockatoos Headdress’ accesses the tumultuous inner process of being dislocated from place and identity. What occurs from this loss is a secret (or unconscious) communing, a deeper reading of place, people and social signifiers through essential instinct. The internal silence and yet booming expressiveness in Pandolfini’s work is testimony to loss of commonality. The colour of ritual is revived as a deeper way of being.
