Jason de Caires Taylor is a sculptor, who explores the lines between art and environment by making art and turning it into a part of nature. The sculptures he creates of normal human life are put at the bottom of the ocean and left to coexist with marine species. Over time, they turn into artificial reefs that house fish and are essential to the oceans ecosystem.
If you go look at his site you'll notice how much more beautiful everything looks with a little bit of coral on it! The colors are fantastic and the shapes are bizarre...but it's the kind of bizarre that makes something interesting. Here's a link to
Taylors gallery.
