“Ocean Atlas” in the Bahamas: The largest underwater sculpture in the world

"Ocean Atlas" in the Bahamas was created with the help of a 3-D printer by artist Jason deCaires Taylor and is considered the largest undersea sculpture to date.

An extraordinary underwater sculpture "Ocean Atlas", which is considered the largest to date, was made by an artist from PH neutral materials that do not affect the natural balance in the sea Jason deCaires Taylor. The statue represents a 60-ton artificial coral reef that will allow abundant underwater life to develop and deter tourists from exploring the polluted, affected depths. The appearance of the mighty sculpture was inspired by a Greek god Atlas, the mighty Titan who, according to beliefs, carried the entire heavenly mountain range on his shoulders. In the modern version, it is about a girl who carries the responsibility of the entire sea expanse on her shoulders, "Ocean Atlas" namely, it communicates the important fact that the younger generations are the ones who are and will be responsible for taking care of the state of nature around them.
