"It's always difficult to generalize about my work because obviously, they're very different in each location. Sometimes I'll witness some particular species has colonized the rocks in an area or producing certain types of forms that the light looks a certain way, but then other times I wanted to represent people from the local community and that also dictates how the installations are. And then there are messages that I wanted to bring forth regarding climate change. I think we've missed an opportunity where we've had so much science and so many facts and figures and warnings and conventions, but we've forgotten a part that has motivated us for millennia, and that is our emotions. And I think that's where art and that's where often religion comes to the fore."What if museums weren’t confined to buildings but could be part of the natural world? What if sculptures could not only celebrate our oceans, but also provide habitats for marine life?Jason deCaires Taylor is a sculptor, environmentalist, and underwater photographer. His works are constructed using materials to instigate natural growth and the subsequent changes intended to explore the aesthetics of decay, rebirth, and metamorphosis. DeCaires Taylor's pioneering public art projects are not only examples of successful marine conservation but also works of art that seek to encourage environmental awareness and lead us to appreciate the breathtaking natural beauty of the underwater world.www.underwatersculpture.comwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast
