Jason deCaires Taylor is a sculptor who’s started a series of underwater sculpture parks. It’s an effort to support the growth of coral reefs and marine life. His latest sculpture called Ocean Atlas, the largest sculpture ever deployed under water, was installed off the coast of Nassau earlier this month.
Ocean Atlas weighs over 60 tons (about 30 Jeep Wranglers) and stands 18 feet tall.

Every piece that Taylor creates forms an artificial reef and becomes a new diving hotspot. The overstressed areas where the sculptures live are greatly benefitted.
