Grace Reef.                                                          Depth 4.2m 1.80x .46m

This installation consists of 16 individual figures, cast from a Grenadian woman called Grace. Front and back profiles of Grace are placed in an area of sand and debris to encourage the formation of coral and to attract marine life. Thus, over time, the sculptures will mirror the on-going evolution of the island and its people. Their placement is in an area where the reef system has been decimated by storm damage and it is designed to help rejuvenate the site.  Due to the nature of the prevailing currents, the sandy substrate on which they are placed is in a continuous state of flux. It transpires that each piece is sometimes hidden or revealed by its protean surroundings. Just as the sculptor manipulates his materials, the sea carves and shapes the shifting underwater necropolis. The viewer is left confused to the paradox of a lost civilization or modern art and raises the notion of a modern archaeologist.
