Underwater Sculpture

Some of my favorite sculptural pieces are by artist Jason deCaires Taylor. Check out his work here .

A little bit about his work:

"Jason de Caires Taylor’s underwater sculptures create a unique, absorbing and expansive visual seascape. Highlighting natural ecological processes Taylor’s interventions explore the intricate relationships that exist between art and environment. His works become artificial reefs, attracting marine life, while offering the viewer privileged temporal encounters, as the shifting sand of the ocean floor, and the works change from moment to moment."

I love that his pieces interact with their natural surroundings and also that they create artificial reefs. I find these pieces very inspiring and wonderfully amazing.

Check out the Environment tab to see a slide show of the pieces changing over time, it's really neat.

Introduction

This blog is a place for me to share my ideas, other people's ideas, other people's struggles, animal's struggles, the Earth's struggles, my art, other's art, environmental friendly tips, inspiring people, inspiring art but most importantly, hope.

About me: I am an artist. I am a vegan. I am an environmentalist. I am open-minded to other's differences in lifestyles, beliefs and opinions. Above all else, I am a learner. I thrive for more information, ideas and influences. My beliefs are strong and define who I am becoming but I also often evaluate and refine them and I try to be careful not to force my ideas on anyone. However, I believe that sharing is positive and is necessary in provoking positive change.

I do not like to use the word "should". I may think that we all "should" do this or that but how do I know what the universal right answer is. It is my hope that my own views actually rarely show up in this blog, but that this is a place where I can share things I find (websites, other blogs, art, articles etc.) as well as my own art for people to perceive and interept how they will. I hope to explore the other sides of issues and share those also.

Enjoy. This could be interesting.
