The first 100 sculptures of the installation “The Silent Evolution” are now nearing completion. The life-size figurative casts taken from various members of the local community are planned to form a monumental artificial reef, aiming to draw both visitors and marine life to an uninhabited area of the national marine park. The first installation of 200 sculptures is scheduled for deployment in June 2010 with the remainder of the 400 by the end of the year. To read further info on the project click here. Jason is still searching for people to cast and become immortalized within the installation. To apply please send a picture and be available to travel to Cancun.
Since November 09 the first 3 underwater pieces installed in the; Museo Subaquatico de Cancun have been a great success, drawing much interest from tourists and already showing exponential coral growth in only 3 months. The flames on the “Man on Fire” have truly been lit.

Some recent images from underwater photographer Mark Atwell (www.damphotos.com) highlight the incredible marine growth that has occurred on the Vicissitudes sculptures over the past 2 years.
