About "Concrete and brick of a quay wall"

About the artwork

The Buizengat is one of the oldest harbours in Rotterdam, located in the Kralingen district. The name refers to the buis, a type of vessel used to fish for herring.

Low water in the Buizengat made it possible to take this photo. A nice tessellation between concrete and brick, roughly following the golden section. The brick part was once covered with plaster but this has flaked off considerably.

The green colour of algae and other water-loving vegetation betrays the fact that the water is also much higher here at times. Irregularity in the brickwork suggests that the wall has a long history and may have collapsed and been rebuilt.

The holes of the exit facility on the left (or should I just call it a ladder?) add some rhythm to the picture. There are also some pipes and some rusty steel details with unclear meaning. All in all, there is a lot to see in this picture. Hang it on the wall and you will keep looking at it!
