If you’re a regular reader of Brooklyn Imbecile, you’ll know that I have a bit of a bricks fetish.
I love the pairing of a geometric grid construction coupled with organic, non-rectangular signs of wear and tear, weathering and climate-based chemical reactions.
These bricks come from part of the Brooklyn Queens Expressway in Dumbo, Brooklyn, at York & Adams Streets near the Manhattan Bridge.
Here’s 16 more super saturated deteriorating bricks just for you my friend…
More special bricks here, here, here, here, here, but definitely not here.
with some undiscovered rothko (in 17 and 18) thrown in for good measure! nice!

no. 9 looks like the mortar is getting squeezed out from between the bricks, like icing in a devil dog.
