About The Shot
New Providence, Bahamas/ 2018
The underwater statue "Virtuoso Man" by artist Willicey Tynes is located 20 feet below the surface off the coast of New Providence, in the BREEF Sir Nicholas Nuttall Coral Reef Sculpture Garden. Placing art underwater offers significant benefits, such as introducing a new audience to the ocean, fostering awareness about marine environments, and encouraging conservation efforts. Additionally, this underwater sculpture garden creates an artificial coral reef system that provides habitat and shelter for marine animals.
