"Still Life with Algae" Moliniere Bay suffered considerable storm damage in recent years and the placement of an artificial structure has provided a new base for marine life to proliferate. The sculptures were also designed to create a diversion from other areas of coral reef currently endangered by overuse from water activities. "Ring of Children" . . . . . . damaged in storm [I find these creepier than anything Nature has living in the waters -ad] 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. 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. [More information on Jason Taylor can be found on his website HERE] 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.

[WARNING: EDITORIAL STATEMENT BY YOUR WEBAUTHOR FOLLOWS] [I am NOT a proponent of these artificial so-called reefs, but I guess you gotta do what you gotta do to get those tourist dollars. Neal stated that Grenada doesn't have mountains for Christo to wrap in fabric; Christo, however, makes his art installations temporary. These sculptures are permanent. As are ships that are sunk intentionally to "create reefs".]
