The amazing work of artist Jason DeCaires Taylor is both an example of successful marine conservation and inspirational art that is creating environmental awareness to encourage social change. The end result of Taylor’s amazing work is an underwater world that is both beautiful and breathtaking.
Taylor founded the world’s first underwater sculpture park located off the coast of Grenada in the West Indies. This ambitious project has been hailed as one of the top 25 Wonders of the World by National Geographic.
His latest creation is a vast museum of over 500 of his works, located off the coast of Cancun, Mexico, which has been described by Forbes as one of the most unique travel destinations in the world.
Over time Taylor’s sculptures become engulfed in living coral, reminding us that these amazing works of art also have a functional use to create new underwater habitats. DeCaires has managed to create an alien like world right here on earth, underwater.
