To experience Jason DeCaires Taylor’s work, you need to have a scuba license. An avid environmental advocate, the artist submerges his sculptures several meters underwater in hopes of assimilating them with the region’s natural coral reefs. Over time, the works become overgrown with coral and turn into part of the underwater landscape. Taylor has installed underwater sculpture parks off the coasts of Cancun, Mexico and Grenada in the West Indies and recently created a new work in Nassau, Bahamas titled “Ocean Atlantis.” A monumental statue of a crouching woman, the piece is not only aesthetically fascinating but will contribute to the health of the region’s coral reef system.
