The Inverted Crystal Cathedral is the most impressive piece at the Lost in Lace exhibition, at the Gas Hall at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. It’s created by Atelier Manferdini, with 1,000 strands of Swarovski crystals.

(It reminded an “inverted Sagrada Familia”, made with chains, I’ve seen at La Pedrera, in Barcelona)
