The Art of the Brick – Lego Exhibition

I don’t plan to write up individual posts on everything I did in New York, but I feel that this was something that was particularly good, so it does deserve its own spotlight!

While in New York I visited The Art of the Brick, which is a Lego art exhibition by Nathan Sawaya. It blew my mind. I’ve taken some photos for you to enjoy – a fraction of what’s there in reality – and sometimes I’ve taken one from a different angle to just show that he’s made all this amazing art from regular Lego blocks. What I love about him is that he’s not just an amazing artist but he wants to make people believe in themselves, and a lot of the pieces had the theme of people holding him back. He said repeatedly that he wants to inspire kids to get arty themselves and to never give up whatever dream they have.

Enjoy!
