The Eeriest Underwater Sculptures In The World

Posted By: C.J. Arabia on 11.23.10

You've gotta see these.

An artist named Jason de Caires Taylor has created dozens if not hundreds of life-size cement sculptures of people and then placed them in the waters of South America.

This becomes their new permanent home and just like an old sunken ship, they become part of the natural landscape.

New creatures and plants cling to the sculptures like they would a reef adding layers of color and dimenson to the sculptures.

The light bounces off off the ocean floor, reflecting the rippling waters as they dance around the sculptures.

I can't imagine what it must feel like to swim through this exhibit. It looks absolutely magical.

How awesome is that?

Unbelievable... a true artist! I'm in awe with the ones with sea creatures attached to them *o* though I must say that if I were swimming around there and didn't know those were down they would scare
