'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.

Part 3 takes us out of the internal communing into a broader space where a personal exploration continues. You are located within and therefore a contextualised sense of belonging is created. Pandolfini documents the rituals of how humans form attachment and the process that ultimately reforms and informs us from within.
