The Rubicon + The Raft of Lampedusa Jason deCaires Taylor

Spanning the seabed, near Lanzarote, Spain, the main installation, The Rubicon, features an assembly of 35 figures walking towards a gate — a point of no return, or a portal to another world. A second installation titled ‘The Raft of Lampedusa’ depicts a haunting representation of the ongoing humanitarian crisis, with a boat of figures desperately waiting for treatment and aid.

Taylor’s art is like no other, a paradox of creation, constructed to be assimilated by the ocean and transformed from inert objects into living breathing coral reefs, portraying human intervention as both positive and life-encouraging. Nothing can quite do justice to the ephemeral nature of his art; for each actual visit to his sites is both unique and subject to the dynamic, fluctuating environment of the ocean.

We have previously featured the work of Jason deCaires Taylor including The Rising Tide and Ocean Atlas.
