A figure in orange robes stands on the stage near a white chair, in front of a dark red curtain with a gold fringe. Rows of seated people in white clothes fill the foreground, mostly seen from behind, with white plastic chairs. Hanging from the tent ceiling are long cylindrical banners in yellow, red and blue with painted elephant and geometric patterns. Ceiling fans and speakers are visible at the sides. The orange-robed figure appears to be the speaker addressing the audience, a possible depiction of a person, but the appearance is too uncertain to confirm.2008-04-12
