Jason DeCaires Taylor

this artist is really cool! this guy works in stone, and when hes done, he puts all of his work under water. what i love about his work is it looks like its been there for hundreds of years. its funny in a way because i can see someone thinking they found something truly abnormal and old if they went diving and stumbled upon this. i love how the light of the sun reflects of his work and the water adding more depth to the piece. what truly enjoy most is how much emotional weight i get from these pieces. they look like they've been sitting in the ocean for a long period of time also adding a narrative to why they're there. were these people trapped in the ground? what was the lady with the wings doing? really awesome work.
