Dale Chihuly - Persian Ceiling
Dale Chihuly is an internationally recognized multi-media artist, most famous for his work with glass. He is renown for his ambitious, site-specific installations in public spaces as well as for exhibitions presented in museums and gardens worldwide.
Persian Ceiling is one of Chihuly’s most popular works. It consists of various series of works in a multitude of shapes, forms and vivid colours arranged in layers over plates of transparent glass. The ceiling creates a kaleidoscopic effect of infinite repetition, suggesting the magical space of a Persian carpet.
(note that you should perhaps lie down on the floor to fully appreciate its beauty) :-)
More "ceiling" in the first comment !

Barcelona. Request for one of these made me go back and look at all the photos I took that day. What a beautiful place.
Main ceiling at the Annapolis Mall (Maryland). The black "oblisk" is massive. About 75 feet / 25 meters per side. Symmetry. On a side note, it's hard to comprehend how large this structure is when you see it in person!
I remember taking this photograph couple of years ago with a cell phone camera. I always wanted to take a high-resolution picture of the same but never got a chance to try it until today. Well, it is not cleanest subway station but the symmetry and a long platform with minimal obstructions are always hard to find in NYC subway system.
