A man representing the South Island stands under an umbrella representing 'hope' to shelter from a bucketload of water representing 'misfortune'. Context - in the last year apart from the usual droughts and floods the South Island has suffered the Pike River Mine disaster on 19 November 2010 in which 29 coal miners were killed, the 7.1 earthquake on 4 September 2010 in which there was a lot of damage but no deaths and now on 22 February 2011 a 6.3 magnitude earthquake which has probably killed more than 200 people (at this point the number is still not known) and caused more severe damage. The reason the apparently lesser magnitude quake caused more destruction is because it was very shallow, was in the middle of the day and struck very close to the centre of the city.

A monster cook who represents 'Mother Nature' stirs several pots as storms swirl outside the window. She has a list of recipes that read 'earthquake entree, tornado twisties, blizzard Bolognese, volcanic mudcake, flood fondue, cyclone souffle'; she says 'Mmmm what shall I cook up next?' Context - the bad weather and the Christchurch earthquake that have afflicted the South Island recently.
