Over the past few decades, we have lost over 40% of our natural coral reefs. The World Resources Institute projects that 90% of coral reefs will be in danger by 2030, and all of them by 2050. The significance of underwater museums is highlighted in the creation of the world’s first underwater sculpture park, which was founded and constructed by Jason deCaires Taylor in 2006 and is recognised as one of the top 25 Wonders of the World by National Geographic.
Jason deCaires Taylor underwater museums appear in locations all over the world, reflecting the global concerns that affect underwater ecologies. While the groups of sculptures can be conceptually viewed as a museum, each individual sculpture contains its own personal message. A conceptual social commentary is made through the figures included in each installation. Before they gradually become obscured through the growth of marine life as the reef claims them, the figures show such groups as business professionals, a couple recognisably taking a selfie, or a man ensconced on a couch. All of these are indicative of the daily actions of humanity, living above the waves, often oblivious to the impact each of their actions can have on the environment. We can see ourselves in the everyday faces of these sculptural peoples that are entombed beneath the waves; the underwater context allowing an atmosphere of otherworldly reflection.
