A Christmas Puzzle at Vivocity


I chanced upon this Christmas exhibit at Vivocity and took another glimpse!

An elf killing a bear!

I walked closer to the exhibit and saw it was not a knife that the elf was brandishing, it was some sort of a string.

But looking at this exhibit for a full 5 minutes and even now, I still could not understand what is the meaning behind this exhibit? Is there some sort of a story behind what the elf is doing? And what exactly is the elf doing?

It still seems that the elf is killing the poor little bear bear.

Can someone enlighten me what the elf is doing?

I think this is North Pole, the elves there make the soft toys and send them across the world.
In the pic. the elf is stuffing the teddy bear.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Hi Indrani !

Thanks for enlightening me!

I Believe you are absolutely correct!

I think the white stuff scattered around the bear are actually the cotton wool and from what you have rightly pointed out, the elf is actually stuffing the bear bear with the cotton.

And what am I thinking of? An elf killing the bear bear? Oh no, I think I may be affected by the terrorist acts occuring lately.

Thanks for pointing out Indrani!
