Headline: Artist Unveils 30 Underwater Sculptures In The Caribbean That Act As Artificial Reef
Caption:
A British diver-sculptor has placed 30 sculptures underwater to highlight the effects of climate change. Jason deCaires Taylor's latest project features sculpted boats submerged near Grenada's Carriacou and Petite Martinique. Situated just four meters underwater, it invites snorkelers and divers to explore its message. Each sculpture depicts local schoolchildren navigating delicate “origami” boats. Made from durable materials, the sculptures provide habitats for fish and coral. Rigging doubles as nurseries for coral and sponges struggling after storms. Marked with temperature data, the sails draw attention to the climate crisis.
