When a sea of tears has been cried, and the night recedes, you awaken at dawn. Like a small, inconspicuous, translucent frog, with an empty and ringing head, you watch an elegant ballerina dancing inside a soap bubble, as the world fills with light and joy...

The painting is conceived as a pair to the artwork "The Magic Garden", and from there, the background scene is taken — the Eye of God with a waterfall and a dancing ballerina. Some details have been added: airy bubbles, a frog, a yellow patch of bushes in the background, and a bokeh effect.
The painting conveys the joy of life and symbolizes the rebirth of the soul after sorrow, when the healing power of the waterfall washes away all that is bad, and life begins to shimmer with new colors.
