Artist Influence-Jason deCaires-Sampling Unit



The past couple of days I have been researching artists for inspiration in my own work. I found this artist when working on my contextual study unit. These images are of an artist called Jason deCaires Taylor who is a sculpture that places he work underneath water, such as the sea.  I found Jason decaires Taylor in an article in ‘Green Places’ magazine (Journals/Magazines in the Library).  In the article was a brief interview with the artist, where he explains how his work is about everyday people and situations created into stone sculptures, then put underwater to see what affect the environment  has on them. These images are of his current work situated in the Mexican sea.
