Weekend Reflections

Hook

New fish and chips shop pop up today. More options for all fan who love to eat out or take away on Brunswick St., Fitzroy


I like the name of the shop " HOOK ". It's pretty obvious to tell what they sell. And the atmosphere of this shop give me a sense of fishing boat and ocean.


It's no pay for this posted but It's lovely to be invite for pre-opening party last night by the owner who want to say " Thank You " to all people who involved with all hard work for this shop.


It's nice to see someone appreciated all hard work, people do for. And I wish him a good luck with his business.

The guy on Brunswick Street

If you go to Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, you alway see this guy. He dresses crazy but it made him look outstanding. For me he likes one of Brunswick's symbol. I'm not sure he is there every single day but you can see him on the weekend for sure !

The window display of Thai restaurant on Brunswick

At the front's display of Thai restaurant on Brunswick Street. They show Khon Masks which I really like it. This beautiful Khon masks comprise part of the costume of performers of the classical dance-drama of Thailand called " Mask Play " A Khon performance involves singing, dancing, acting, acrobatics, and music. The singing is accomplished by an offstage chorus which also recites the narrative and dialogues. The majority of actors are-unable to do this because of the masks they wear. Some forms of the masked-play, probably older forms, did not use singing. Stories for the drama are based exclusively on the Ramakien, the Thai version of an Indian epic. 

Traditionally, performers in the masked-play were men only; men played all the female roles. Supposedly, this had to do with the fact that the masked-play was performed inside the court exclusively. Actors must start training at an early age. The early stages of training are akin to gymnastic training. Although at times much muscular exertion is required, the dancing is still very graceful and expressive. Actors must learn the gesture language of the dance. Certain hand gestures and body movements indicate different emotions or responses. In recent times, changes have occurred and women are now playing the female parts.

A unique sculptural feature of Brunswick Street art the decorative excentric sculptural signs above many of the shops. And this is my favorite flowers shop “Flowers Vasette”  Look so cool with bees and carnivorous plant.
