Human Nature by Jason deCaires Taylor - Building Reefs With Art

This video details works by Jason deCaires Taylor starting with the oldest pieces through to the most recent in 2012. The filming spans three countries; Grenada, Bahamas and Mexico and is shot entirely using a 7D and Sigma Lenses.

Taylor crafts his figures with a special marine-safe cement that has near neutral pH. Its harmlessness is evident in the number and variety of ocean life that take up residence in and on the pieces--and this is by design.
