Underwater Museum: The Submerged Sculptures of Jason DeCaires Taylor

On the seabed off the coast of the West Indies and Mexico, artist Jason deCaires Taylor's 'living sculptures' are a permanent embellishment to the underwater landscape. Taylor casts life-size statues from materials used to encourage reef growth and sinks them to the ocean floor. Over time, the sculptures attract corals, algae and a diverse variety of fish species and evolve into beautiful and surreal installations that adapt with their environment. This book offers a glimpse onto these awe-inspiring creations, in shots of the sculptures at various stages in their metamorphosis, plus informative text and images about the practicalities of the artist's process. An immersive tour of Taylor's underwater sculpture parks, this collection is a dazzling visual treat for ocean enthusiasts, environmentalists and art lovers.
