Artwork features headless parrot in cage (7)
I believe the answer is:
collage
'artwork' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for collage that I've seen before include "Artwork formed from scraps of paper, photos etc" , "work of art" , "work being stuck" , "Art form using glued pieces" , "Art form using pieces stuck on" .)
