Description
The whole world is a bubble under a torn canopy, and the only shelter is a column's shadow and a hugged bear. Three massive golden-copper columns hold up a dark brown canopy torn like a wing. At the base of the central column sits a small woman in black, cradling a plush bear. Behind the columns burns an orange-yellow glow; below, in a layer of soap bubbles, floats a small globe of the earth.
