Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the company picnic. On the left you will find a collection of antique porcelain frogs.
These people appear to be partaking in a strange ritual. Perhaps this is some sort of bizarre fertility celebration? The porcelain creatures that they are worshipping may represent frogs or other amphibians which contain the ability to reproduce new life within their own bodies, rather than laying eggs externally like most insects.
The fact that the frogs are made of porcelain suggests they may have some religious significance. Perhaps it is somehow related to death? Death and dying are not easily accepted by many people, resulting in a variety of rituals which attempt to delay or deny death.
They may be trying to summon the spirit of a frog god. The fact that they are standing around an empty hole suggests they do not believe in gods but are still attempting to communicate with one.
The fact that we are observing a group of people standing around the hole suggests that, as with many religious rituals, they believe this will summon something. If it is not a god they wish to summon then what is it?
Perhaps the frog is a symbol for fertility, and they are trying to attract people of the opposite sex? It seems humans have a strange obsession with mating. Perhaps it stems from an instinctual desire that is somehow related to survival.
It is also possible that they are trying to attract frogs, as the frog is an animal which reproduces very quickly. Perhaps there is a shortage of food for them or they need help finding mates.
