Golden Silence by AT-8 in Berlin

Mixed Media on lit X 2024 The cockatoo can be interpreted as a symbol of expression, communication, and inner freedom. The circular format creates a concentrated, almost meditative effect—the bird’s gaze draws the viewer into a quiet, contemplative moment. The interplay of light and shadow allows the animal to emerge as if from a cosmic mist. It does not appear merely as a bird, but as an apparition—a being suspended between nature and dreamlike realms. The golden aura may represent value, dignity, and spiritual presence, while the surrounding darkness conveys depth, mystery, and inner strength.
