Jason De Caires Taylor’s latest underwater installation is now being installed in Cancun, Mexico. When fully finished in 2011, it’s by far and away going to be Jason’s most ambitious project yet, making it the largest underwater sculpture park in the World.
Jason has just positioned the first 3 sculptures of the project and the team is now underway creating 400 life size figures for ‘The Silent Evolution’. The 400 pieces will form a timeline of the changes both visually and socially in humans over the past centuries.
All of Jason De Caires Taylor’s sculptures for Mexico will be placed within the National Marine Park of Cancun, Isla Mujeres and Nisuc and are designed to form an artificial reef. They will be the basis for the World’s largest Underwater Art Museum.
The first pieces, seen above, are entitled La Jardinera de la Esperanza (The Gardener of Hope), Coleccionista de los Sueños (The Archive of Lost Dreams), and Hombre en Llamas (Man on Fire).
The second phase currently in progress is entitled; La Evolucion Silenciosa (The Silent Evolution).

The rumors are indeed true. Banksy's first film will premier to the public for the first time at the Sundance Film Festival. We've seen it and, yes, it's absolutely brilliant.

From JermIX:
""i have spoken out a few times on the street about having been molested, and have been blessed to have inspired others to share their story with me.
i am constantly trying to find closure but can't seem to stop making variations of this confession. it's who i am apparently. no matter how far i run or how honest i am, i will always be that little kid, the victim, at that moment of innocence lost. stenciling, wandering, pasting, wondering, suffering, all i really know is that i need to continue screaming what i've always been afraid to whisper."
