Merchants set up shop under awnings in a Balinese town. In the distance, a temple dominates the scene and the lives of the townspeople. Women in sarongs and in contemporary dress move from stall to stall to make their purchases, and chickens stroll the street in between. Working in sepia, Odong Junaidi gives the images a dreamlike effect as he extols a traditional weekly market. Although the merchandise is modern, the shopping practices are preserved from bygone days.
