  • Ocean Atlas<br />
<br />
Installed at the beginning of October 2014 on the western coastline of New Providence in Nassau, Bahamas, “Ocean Atlas” references the Ancient Greek sculpture of Titan Atlas holding the heavens but depicts a young local Bahamian girl sustaining the ceiling of the ocean. The largest single sculpture ever to be deployed underwater, it reaches from the sea floor five meters up to the surface and weighs over sixty tonnes. Assembled underwater in sections using an ambitious new technique developed and engineered by Jason deCaires Taylor.<br />
<br />
The sculpture commissioned by B.R.E.E.F (Bahamas Reef Environment Educational Foundation) aims to create an underwater sculpture garden in honor of its founder Sir Nicholas Nuttall. It includes other sculptural works by local artists Willicey Tynes and Andret John and an artificial reef trail designed by Reefball.<br />
 <br />
The new work, which during low tide will reflect a mirror image on the underside of the sea’s surface, is a dramatic increase in scale from Taylor's previous works and ensures that even after substantial coral growth the figure will still remain highly recognisable. A solar light and flag is located on the highest point to aid marine navigation.<br />
<br />
Constructed using sustainable pH neutral materials it creates an artificial reef for marine life to colonise and inhabit, whilst drawing tourists away from over stressed natural reef areas. <br />
<br />
With our oceans and coral reefs currently facing collapse from numerous threats including; overfishing, habitat loss, ocean acidification, global warming and water pollution the piece symbolizes the burden we are currently asking future generations to carry and the collective responsibility we have to prevent its collapse.<br />

  • Ocean Atlas<br />
<br />
Installed at the beginning of October 2014 on the western coastline of New Providence in Nassau, Bahamas, “Ocean Atlas” references the Ancient Greek sculpture of Titan Atlas holding the heavens but depicts a young local Bahamian girl sustaining the ceiling of the ocean. The largest single sculpture ever to be deployed underwater, it reaches from the sea floor five meters up to the surface and weighs over sixty tonnes. Assembled underwater in sections using an ambitious new technique developed and engineered by Jason deCaires Taylor.<br />
<br />
The sculpture commissioned by B.R.E.E.F (Bahamas Reef Environment Educational Foundation) aims to create an underwater sculpture garden in honor of its founder Sir Nicholas Nuttall. It includes other sculptural works by local artists Willicey Tynes and Andret John and an artificial reef trail designed by Reefball.<br />
 <br />
The new work, which during low tide will reflect a mirror image on the underside of the sea’s surface, is a dramatic increase in scale from Taylor's previous works and ensures that even after substantial coral growth the figure will still remain highly recognisable. A solar light and flag is located on the highest point to aid marine navigation.<br />

  • THE ATOMIC SURFERS FROM FUKUSHIMA<br />
<br />
On march 11 at 2:46 pm 2011, Japan was hit by a 9.0  earthquake magnitude which generated a tsunami on the japanese coasts. Here in Futaba beach, the giant wave has broken the first floor of an hotel.<br />
<br />
18,500 people died , 90% drowned by the tsunami wave . The bodies of 2,561 of these people were not found. Steles are visible along the roads to honor them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
5 years later, the scars of the tsunami are still visible like  in Tomioka town . The law now prohibits to live in areas destroyed by the tsunami . Only the industrial or commercial activities are allowed, but the candidates are very few to come.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The road  fences have been bent by the strenght of the waves. Only the police patrols in the area to monitor the few houses still standing and controlling the curious visitors. In the distance the speakers encourage visitors and workers to consult a doctor in case of persistent headaches .<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The tsunami hit the Daaitchi nuclear plant , that can be spotted from Futaba beach . The disaster was rated level 7, the equivalent of Chernobyl. In 5 years, nearly 50 000 people have worked with strong financial incentives to decontaminate the plant and stop the leaks.<br />
<br />
<br />
Radiations sensors indicate the radioactivity level, but in these red zones classified as " difficulty to return zone" by the governement,  there is no one to read. 1 millisievert is the maximum permissible exposure limit during one year for humans..<br />
<br />
<br />
Depending on the degree of contamination in which is their home , residents receive compensation from TEPCO company. In the red zone they receive $ 1,000 per month per person . This creates tension in the population because those who are on the other side of the fence as here in Tomioka , receive nothing.<br />
<br />
<br />
In the « orange zone » , residents have the right to visit their home if they want to take care of it, like here in Naraha . This man comes weeding his garden. His wife refuses to come , and he will not bring his childre

On march 11 at 2:46 pm 2011, Japan was hit by a 9.0  earthquake magnitude which generated a tsunami on the japanese coasts. Here in Futaba beach, the giant wave has broken the first floor of an hotel.<br />
<br />
18,500 people died , 90% drowned by the tsunami wave . The bodies of 2,561 of these people were not found. Steles are visible along the roads to honor them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
5 years later, the scars of the tsunami are still visible like  in Tomioka town . The law now prohibits to live in areas destroyed by the tsunami . Only the industrial or commercial activities are allowed, but the candidates are very few to come.<br />

<br />
On march 11 at 2:46 pm 2011, Japan was hit by a 9.0  earthquake magnitude which generated a tsunami on the japanese coasts. Here in Futaba beach, the giant wave has broken the first floor of an hotel.<br />
<br />
18,500 people died , 90% drowned by the tsunami wave . The bodies of 2,561 of these people were not found. Steles are visible along the roads to honor them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
5 years later, the scars of the tsunami are still visible like  in Tomioka town . The law now prohibits to live in areas destroyed by the tsunami . Only the industrial or commercial activities are allowed, but the candidates are very few to come.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The road  fences have been bent by the strenght of the waves. Only the police patrols in the area to monitor the few houses still standing and controlling the curious visitors. In the distance the speakers encourage visitors and workers to consult a doctor in case of persistent headaches .<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The tsunami hit the Daaitchi nuclear plant , that can be spotted from Futaba beach . The disaster was rated level 7, the equivalent of Chernobyl. In 5 years, nearly 50 000 people have worked with strong financial incentives to decontaminate the plant and stop the leaks.<br />
<br />
<br />
Radiations sensors indicate the radioactivity level, but in these red zones classified as " difficulty to return zone" by the governement,  there is no one to read. 1 millisievert is the maximum permissible exposure limit during one year for humans..<br />
<br />
<br />
Depending on the degree of contamination in which is their home , residents receive compensation from TEPCO company. In the red zone they receive $ 1,000 per month per person . This creates tension in the population because those who are on the other side of the fence as here in Tomioka , receive nothing.<br />

Every Thursday afternoon, pilgrims go to the cemetery to praying for their family, and passing the only one of broken road because of the abrasion on the side of the coast of the Tambak Lorok Village in Semarang City, Central Java, Indonesia.<br />
Abrasion struck the Tambak Lorok coastal village, Sub-district of Tanjungmas, District North of Semarang, more severe because the land has eroded over 1 kilometer from the shoreline. As a result of this coastal damage caused tidal water entered into the home of locals with a height of between 60 cm to 1 meter, including damaging the cemetery lands on the side of the village. There are at least 22 heads of families in the area were forced to evacuate to a safer place. According to some residents of the Tambak Lorok Village, if not addressed seriously by the government, they believe within one to two years ahead more damage will be even worse than today.<br />

On march 11 at 2:46 pm 2011, Japan was hit by a 9.0  earthquake magnitude which generated a tsunami on the japanese coasts. Here in Futaba beach, the giant wave has broken the first floor of an hotel.<br />
<br />
18,500 people died , 90% drowned by the tsunami wave . The bodies of 2,561 of these people were not found. Steles are visible along the roads to honor them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
5 years later, the scars of the tsunami are still visible like  in Tomioka town . The law now prohibits to live in areas destroyed by the tsunami . Only the industrial or commercial activities are allowed, but the candidates are very few to come.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The road  fences have been bent by the strenght of the waves. Only the police patrols in the area to monitor the few houses still standing and controlling the curious visitors. In the distance the speakers encourage visitors and workers to consult a doctor in case of persistent headaches .<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The tsunami hit the Daaitchi nuclear plant , that can be spotted from Futaba beach . The disaster was rated level 7, the equivalent of Chernobyl. In 5 years, nearly 50 000 people have worked with strong financial incentives to decontaminate the plant and stop the leaks.<br />

  • The Kuna: the last tribe of the Caribbean <br />
<br />
500 years ago, the Kuna people lived on the border between Panama and Colombia. In the early 18th century, when the Spanish conquistadors expanded the presence in the area, the Kuna began to emigrate to the San Blas islands where no foreigners were permitted until the late 1940s. Some say Christopher Columbus discovered this land, but the Kuna retort that they have occupied it for centuries. Of the 365 islands, approximately 40 are inhabited and overcrowded!<br />
Either a boat or plane is needed to reach the San Blas islands where the 50,000 Kuna live. They have gained a certain level of autonomy and in the process, have successfully maintained their traditions and customs. <br />
If arriving by boat, it feels like you are approaching paradise itself. Small plots of land emerge from the sea. These tiny islands are covered by palm trees, which provide little shade to the Kuna’s thatch huts. Fishermen slowly drift across the water in their pirogues. Once on the islands, the Kuna women are the first to greet you. They are characteristically short and all wear a traditional, recognizable attire featuring a red shawl, a skirt, beaded bracelets and necklaces, a gold nose ring, and at least one Mola design on the fabric. Mola art was once painted on the body but was relegated to clothing under the influence of the missionaries. Earliest accounts of Mola fashion date back to 1514!<br />
Using the technique of reverse application, artists create images depicting natural scenes including landscapes and wildlife, as well as more abstract geometrical patterns. Since some on these islands have TV, animals like elephants are also represented, even though they are not indigenous to the area.  In the modern metropolis of Panama city, the Kuna women proudly wear their traditional clothing in the streets. Museums around the world exhibit molas.<br />
Even school uniforms on the islands are influenced by the mola art.<br />
The Kuna have a traditionally matriarchal so
