The Brick Journal - Issue no. 1

The Brick Journal is a collaborative publication devoted to the visual language, social and geologic histories, and cultural production that stem from and connect to brickmaking and brick work. 

Looking to the building arts as cultural expression, The Brick Journal exists to create an evolving document for sharing and archiving the occupational traditions, pragmatic beauty, poetic abstraction and complex histories of built environments and land. 

Each issue forms a participatory vessel where contributors are invited to share how their own habits of perception and making are animated by giving deep attention to the brick itself as a vast conceptual terrain, considering its materiality and form to inspire and connect us by following the questions it asks of us.
