"I think the important highlight of this piece is that it has a positive and joyous energy. The main idea of this painting is a moment of revelation, or culmination of something that the inhabitants have been waiting for. The main characters of the piece are the two items that have been constant symbols throughout as this entire series has grown: the gift and the umbrella. The gifts are objects that hold memories of the female character's past, present and future in the series. We never know which it will be, but the gifts have the ability to contain those moments and to transport her to another point in time. The umbrella is an item that appears so show the main characters (male or female) which paths are safe for traveling. These are being held inside a glass dome, and seem to have been there for some time. We come into this scene at the moment where there is a gathering of the land’s inhabitants, and a message is being delivered (from the balloon character top left area) that will signal a change for everyone."- Nathan Spoor
