Heaven Of Delight - Bug-Infested Art Ceiling

Artist Jan Fabre spent four months (with his 29 assistants) gluing 1.6 Million Buprestidae beetles on the ceiling of the Royal Palace in Brussels to create the Heaven of Delight.

Jan Fabre says he began with smaller projects and surfaces to see what him and his team could come up with and the result is this very unusual ceiling decor.

Since beetles are a non-protected species, it was easy for Jan and his team to gather the jeweled beetles from universities and countries like Thailand where beetles are considered a delicacy.

Creative Bento Lunches

Bento is an art form for packing lunches in the Japanese culture. When you think of lunchboxes, you're probably thinking of the old brown paper bag or the cute cartoon character metal or plastic lunchboxes children take to school with them.

The Japanese have taken the act of packing a lunch or meal to a whole different level of sophistication and fun!

What makes them fun is that these boxes come in many creative styles. The compartments can be the same size or different sizes and the Bento Boxes themselves can be made from different materials and they come in many different themes and shapes from kitty shaped hello kitty box to a round shaped lunch box with two layers.
