'Helios' artwork goes on display in London
A large artwork depicting the sun has gone on display in London, adding a new light in an elaborate hall dubbed by some as the "Sistine Chapel of the UK."
''Helios'' named after the ancient Greek and Roman sun god, is the latest piece of artwork by British artist Luke Jerram, adding new light to the Painted Hall.
Measuring seven meters (23 ft) in diameter, the "Helios" installation is internally lit and on show amid the baroque interior of the Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich.

00:30I saw that there was a similar one previously, I think it was a moon, we
00:42didn't make that one and I was like I really want to go and I've wanted to
00:45come to see the Painted Hall for so long. It's been on my long to-do list for a
00:49very long time so yeah today we decided to come together. I also go out on a lot
00:54of adventures with my daughter so we thought this would be a nice one to come
00:57and see together.
01:27It's a much quieter sort of reflective installation because it's the sun, it's
01:37the warmer colours and also it's because it's got the actual colours
01:42around the ceiling etc and I try to come in the morning when it's quieter because
01:47then you can hear the music and you don't hear all the other sounds or
01:51background sounds as well.
