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.

Monumental Parkour Andy Day

With a combined passion for the practice of parkour and photography, Andy Day has documented a dynamic series of images that bring together urban exploration, memories and monumental architecture. over the course of three months, the british photographer and parkour athlete traveled to Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia in search of ‘Spomenik’ — World War II monuments commissioned by the regime of Marshal Tito and scattered across former Yugoslavia. informed by the work of photographer Jan Kempenaers, who documented twenty-six of these otherworldly architectural objects, day tasked several parkour athletes from the region to engage, occupy and activate each of the structural relics.
