介绍:
This is one museum you would have problems asking directions for, because you won’t be able to find it anywhere on the surface of the earth. The museum is the first underwater art museum of Europe, and it can only be found 14 meters under the sea.
Understandably, getting there wouldn’t be as easy as a walk in the park. You’ll need to be a diver so as to be able to actually pay a visit. But if you do manage to pull it off, you’ll be in for many times.
The museum is home to some of the most exciting sea sculptures. The underwater museum project is designed to create a large-scale artificial reef for the local fish species.
These sculptures are all life-like, and the attention to detail is shocking. All these sculptures, once they go into the sea, become the property of the sea and of all its creatures.
Why couldn’t all these sculptures have been done simply on dry land, where people could have easily accessed and appreciated them?
The designer said, “The sea is the most unbelievable exhibition space an artist could ever wish for. You have amazing lighting effects changing by the hour, explosions of sand covering the sculptures in a cloud of mystery, a unique timeless quality and the procession of curious visitors, each lending their own special touch to the site. As new reefs form, which literally starts to develop, a world that continuously amazes me.”
This is exactly what makes the underwater museum so amazing. It is never a single or fixed thing. The sea is constantly working on it and changing it.
