Jak-kul-yak-kul This is an indigenous name for the pink cockatoo. It conjures noise and chatter. Here, the frame is crowded, cropped tightly to heads and a storm of feathers. There is no sky, no escape, only proximity and movement. The restless diagonals and overlapping textures create visual noise, echoing the noise within us—the hum of worry, the surge of intrusive thought, the inability to quiet the mind. The composition presses inward, as thoughts do when they refuse to loosen their grip.
