Have you noticed that Bushwick is home to tons (and we mean tons) of churches? We did – and so did Dimitri Manousakis, our photog for the latest installment of Insta-Takeovers! Dimitri, a photographer, mixologist for a Greek restaurant, and resident mixographer for Bushwick Daily, wandered our broad neighborhood and captured the exteriors of many Bushwick houses of worship on camera. Signing his Insta-posts as “godless @dimjay,” Dimitri made it clear that this wasn’t a conversion excursion. No matter your faith – or lack thereof – there’s something fascinating about their similarities and their differences. From small box-like structures to magnificently ornate details, Bushwick has it all.
Scroll down for some of the most awe-inspiring shots and make sure to head over to our Instagram page for the rest of Dimitri’s beautiful photos. (There are plenty more!)
Stay tuned to our social media this week for a Napkin Killa Insta-Takeover! The artist will be installing himself at bars across Bushwick every night this week. Maybe he’ll catch you on a napkin next!
