A brick wall not only creates a unique tattoo but also has a lot of symbolism behind it. below there will be examples of this tattoo, different designs and ideas for this piece.
symbolism
Brick walls are built to provide shelter and keep the outside world from whatever lies beyond the bricks. many houses are built with bricks, as well as basically any building. these cement blocks that are paved together to form a giant concrete wall have been the best building material that has been readily available for humans to use. Having a brick wall tattoo can say a lot about the person who wears it.
solid foundation
brick walls are very strong and almost impossible to destroy and knock down without the right tools. because of this, it shows that the brick wall has a solid foundation. a brick wall tattoo could say exactly that about you. it can be said that you are a strong person who does not fall down or fall apart easily. it says that you yourself have a solid foundation built on solid roots and reinforced with brick and mortar. A brick wall tattoo can mean that you are a protector against those who might try to huff and puff your house.
These ideas are not only relevant to the image, but they can also say that you stay cool. bricks and clay are not only great for building, they are also perfect materials for keeping cool indoors. when brick is used and built for a house, for example, the material is so thick and rock-like, that when the sun falls on the brick, heat is not transferred to the other side. This is because the cement absorbs the sun’s rays and somehow deflects them from reaching the other side, keeping it nice and cool inside. this can also be said of yourself. tough exterior, but stays cool and calm on the other side of the wall.
