- What has been the feedback of divers once they explore the park and interact with your sculptures....

To date I haven’t had a single bad response and divers find it very mystifying and unusual. They say it feels like an archeological experience relating to lost civilizations. The next thing that follows is the question why I do it for no financial return?

- Like good wines does the intensity of your sculptures increase with time?

Hopefully. In a very short space of time I have seen incredible marine growth and colonization from life. Grace reef has a octopus living under one of her shoulders, along with peacock flounders lying in the sand next to her. La Diablesse has a green moray living inside the frame work and a permanent squirrel fish under her hat. It moves around the hat according to which angle you approach. When I first submerge the pieces they get covered in algae which in turn is grazed by sea urchins and parrot fish. The stainless steel dress on la Diablesse is covered by teeth marks from these fish. The lost correspondent has a community of banded coral shrimp living in one of the drawers and damsel fish inside the type writer. Much of the design of the pieces has been to provide shelter for marine life. At the moment I have been documenting the process of change in the pieces

- What is the future for Jason Taylor, what are your future projects?

I am looking to start using some different materials and would like to produce a glass or Perspex statue which reflects and refracts the varying light patterns underwater. Also trying various textures and formations for attracting specific creatures. I have an installation design which incorporates using a ship wreck and a series of new works following in the same vain as the Un-still life piece. I am currently in the process of surveying new sites and seeking funding.
