The work is so detailed, and it's fascinating to think that these sculptures will one day be part of a coral reef.Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06509431336916594990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-58885833448953349782012-06-12T17:53:44.667+01:002012-06-12T17:53:44.667+01:00That is haunting, poignant and deeply moving.

I'd never heard of this talented artist or his evocative underwater art before and am so glad you shared this. How very difficult it must be to take something as ugly, painful and cruel as slavery and murder and memorialize it in such a touchingly beautiful and life-affirming way. I love that the sculptures will become coral reefs over time, and think Kay expressed my feelings on that better than I could!Laloofahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07256023593175821427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-15408588989245432592012-06-12T17:28:27.856+01:002012-06-12T17:28:27.856+01:00How unusualHow unusualMohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16999026380030273440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-90121697345396589802012-06-12T17:00:44.141+01:002012-06-12T17:00:44.141+01:00I agree with Jinksy, the figures make me want to b...I agree with Jinksy, the figures make me want to breathe deeply, swim upward.<br />They're fabulous, and what better fate for statues than to become part of a coral reef, sustaining underwater life for a long, long time.<br />KKay L.
