Bustle


Early Sunday Morning

This was indeed taken on an early Sunday morning. Around here, nobody seems to rest on the sabbath. The lady here sweeps the public road in front of her shophouse whilst the man loads up the trishaw. The constant sweeping motion of the lady's arms and broom stands in direct contrast to the potential nature of the trishaw, loaded and awaiting transport. The former happening, the latter waiting to happen. The former making a rustling sound, the latter dead silent. So much activity, so many possibilities. The darkened doorway, another Hopper influence, makes you wonder what lies beyond. The artifacts lined along the street gives a hint, but with such an eclectic collection, one cannot say for sure, and it remains yet another possibility.
