Underwater of the sculpture of Jason de Caires Taylor

Would you like to walk through a beautiful Park, surrounded by mysterious stone sculptures, some of which lead unusual dances, others just lie and relax, write letters, ride bikes, in a word, live a separate life. Interesting? Quite. And what if you were told that there is this Park of marvelous sculptures at the bottom of the sea, and to see the sea stone inhabitants need to make a fascinating journey into the magical underwater world?


The world's first underwater sculpture Park in Grenada, West India is the work of the talented sculptor Jason de Caires Taylor, who received worldwide recognition in 2006 for his unique work. His underwater sculptures are designed to create artificial reefs. His work reflects the ecological processes of the marine environment on the one hand and illustrates the complex relationship between contemporary art and the environment on the other.Sculptural creations carry a hidden message that it is necessary to understand and protect the natural world.


The sculptures are placed in shallow water so that they can be easily reached by scuba diving, with a snorkel or by sailing on a pleasure boat with a glass bottom. The audience is invited to discover and discover the beauty of our underwater planet and appreciate the evolution of the reef.


The process of creating sculptures under water is fundamentally different from the ground sculptures. There are physical and optical conditions to consider. Under the water, the statues seem twenty-five percent larger, the colors are distorted because water refracts sunlight. The water environment allows you to see this world in the whole game of its prospects and colors, it turns the process of simple passive observation into an exciting study.
