Jason Taylor has recently completed his underwater sculpture project off the coast of Greneda. He has explored the changing environments that sculptures can be placed in, and is now concentrating on perhaps the most changeable environment; the ocean. His sculptures when seen on land are interesting but not attention grabbing, and lack emotion. However when they are seemingly immortalised underwater their eerie prescence really makes these pieces intriguing. Although the Grenadian government obviously has a vested interest in this project, (this can be seen in some of the pieces such as the 'Lost Correspondent') overall the 'installation' is fascinating and can be enjoyed by anyone who can hold their breath for long enough!

Your right it is pretty eerie but a fascinating location for a project. It makes it seem like there was once a world there and now the sea has come and overtaken it but left them behind in stone. Not sure if i ould go down think i would get to scarred, especially as some of the pictures make the location very spooky. Also must be interesting to see how the animals living in that habitat have adapted to it, when being installed and having the statues there which then must bring people into the environment too.
