Preview of the New Sculptures Added to Cancun's Underwater Museum

Three new sculptures were submerged as a part of the Cancun and Isla Mujeres Underwater Art Museum.

The sculptures - Dream Collector, Man on Fire and The Gardener of Hope – were carefully submerged to a variety of different depths throughout the national park.

Created by British/Guyanese artist Jason de Caires Taylor, the sculptures were placed near natural reefs and marine life in order to create an artificial habitat.
