Sound checking at our EP launch at The Toff. I am doing up the buttons on my shirt. Thomas is playing the guitar. Eliza is playing the bass guitar. Rohan is looking at the camera behind the drums. Rohan looks a little creepy.
This ceiling is made of beetles. 1.6 million, of them. Or Buprestidae to be precise; a family of the insect which are more commonly known as Jewel Beetles.
This incredible ceiling art - known as Heaven Of Delight - can be found at the Royal Palace in Brussels and was the brainchild of controversial Flemish artist Jan Fabre, a man renowned for working with strange media including blood, sperm and all manner of insects. Apparently it took Fabre’s team of around 30 people 4 months just to glue the beetle shells to the ceiling.
