(Sirru Fen Fushi) A
5 star resort in the Maldives decided to commission a bespoke piece of marine
art and brought in artist and environmentalist Jason deCaires Taylor to do his
stuff.
Nine months later he revealed a marine sculptural work of art called Coralarium made from pH-neutral marine steel, it is punctuated with cutouts mimicking the organic forms found in the water, making it a solid yet transparent structure. Allowing marine life to explore the new environment.
Well despite 9 months in the making nobody from the Maldives bothered complaining until it was finished and the government issued a court order that it had to be destroyed as it was offensive to...Muslims who deemed it a threat to Islamic unity.
