Sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor is internationally acclaimed for his underwater installations. Mixing art and science, his works are designed to act as artificial reefs — attracting corals, increasing marine biomass and aggregating fish species — while crucially diverting tourists away from fragile natural reefs and thus providing space for natural rejuvenation.

In 2006 Taylor created the world's first underwater sculpture park off the coast of Grenada in the West Indies. Today Taylor's works are installed in oceans off the coasts of Mexico, Granada and the Bahamas.

He has said he uses sculpture "as a means of conveying hope and awareness of the plight of our oceans."
