Creator of the world’s first underwater sculpture park, Jason de Caires Taylor has
gained international recognition for his unique work. His sculptures
highlight ecological processes whilst exploring the intricate
relationships between modern art and the environment.
The sculptures are sited in clear shallow waters to afford easy access
by divers, snorkellers and those in glass-bottomed boats. Viewers are
invited to discover the beauty of our underwater planet and to
appreciate the processes of reef evolution.

By using sculptures to create artificial reefs, the artist’s
interventions promote hope and recovery, and underline our need to
understand and protect the natural world.
