Psychedelic Design of a Mosque Ceiling

bescouted_photo.jpg

Ever since the trip to Iran, I pay special attention to the interiors of mosques, especially ceilings. They are always wonderful and special, covered in intricate patterns and vivid tiles, carefully laid by hand. I can't really imagine the effort and skill required to produce the colorful angled surface like that, where shape and shade intertwine to create a picture unique for this specific time and lighting. I'm not a fan of Islam, to be clear, but it doesn't make mosques any less amazing from the aesthetic perspective.
