Asian Grocery in Sydney
In contrast with my last post, it’s about another form of aesthetic. The display window of the Asian grocery is like a kaleidoscope, it is impossible to capture all the things it is displaying in one time. It is always bombarded by the colourful A4 size phone card advertisement and you have to see through the crap between the papers to "peep" at the interior of the store. Or it is full of cheap "made in China" ceramic and all in a sudden you will find two huge cans of fortune cookie sitting next to "Chinese art works". The complexity of the displays completely dissolve the materially of the glass and regenerate another fabric.
When looking at the the Asian grocery, a sense of beauty derives from the chaotic, the messiness and the complexity of the window display. Besides my nostalgic feeling, the unsophisticated setting of those Asian stores here composed an interesting journey for exploration in shopping.
