Подводная скульптура «Гнездо» Underwater sculpture "Nest"
У берега острова Гили Мено в Индонезии вы можете найти невероятную скульптуру под названием "Гнездо".
В 50-ти метрах от берега острова, напротив отеля, находится подводная скульптура «Гнездо». Ее создал известный британский скульптор Джейсон де Кейр Тейлор.
Подводная скульптура под названием «Гнездо» состоит из 48 человеческих фигур в натуральную величину, которые образуют вечный подводный хоровод, привлекая к себе подводных обитателей. В будущем скульптуры покроются морской растительностью, а человеческие фигуры постепенно будут превращаться в коралловый риф.
«Прежде всего «Гнездо» посвящено вопросам защиты окружающей среды. Фигуры установлены в круг, символизируя собой круг жизни, и вскоре они сами станут местом, где будет бурлить жизнь. Скоро бетон покроется мягкими кораллами и морскими губками, образуя основу для нежных твёрдых кораллов и постепенно превращаясь в коралловый риф. Инсталляция представляет собой мост между миром людей и моря. Она доступна для всех, поскольку расположена прямо рядом с пляжем. Я надеюсь, что люди приедут посмотреть на неё и как на произведение искусства и как на точку входа в подводный мир.» — Вот что рассказывает о своём произведении сам скульптор.
Off the coast of Gili Meno Island in Indonesia, you can find an incredible sculpture called "The Nest".
50 meters from the shore of the island, opposite the hotel, there is an underwater sculpture “Nest”. It was created by the famous British sculptor Jason de Cair Taylor. The underwater sculpture, called “The Nest,” consists of 48 life-size human figures that form an eternal underwater circle dance, attracting underwater inhabitants. In the future, the sculptures will be covered with marine vegetation, and the human figures will gradually turn into a coral reef.
“First of all, “The Nest” is dedicated to environmental protection issues. The figures are installed in a circle, symbolizing the circle of life, and soon they themselves will become a place where life will boil. Soon the concrete will be covered with soft corals and sea sponges, forming a base for delicate hard corals and gradually turning into a coral reef. The installation represents a bridge between the world of people and the sea. It is accessible to everyone as it is located right next to the beach. I hope people will come to see it both as a work of art and as an entry point into the underwater world.” — This is what the sculptor himself says about his work.

Author recommendation because not enough of their books get recognized :( (as far as I know, at least)
Kenneth Oppel!! Author of Silverwing and Airborne, they have also written the (somewhat?) Short horror book The Nest, as well as The Overthrow trilogy.
Personally, I am in LOVE with The Overthrow, and it has consumed my brain for a while. Highly recommend this author!!
PREACH!!
You just don't get him like I do.
Wymack pulled a bottle of vodka out of the bag and put it down beside Kevin. “You have ten seconds to inhale as much of this as you can. I’m timing you. Go.” It was alarming how much a man could drink when he needed an emotional crutch. Wymack had to pry the bottle from Kevin’s desperate fingers afterward.
Kevin was silent for an endless minute, then said, “You should be Court.” It was barely a whisper, but it cut Neil to the bone. It was a resentful goodbye to the bright future Kevin had wanted for Neil. Kevin recruited Neil because he believed in Neil’s potential. He brought him to the Foxes intending to make a star athlete out of him. Despite his condescending attitude and his dismissals of Neil’s best efforts Kevin honestly expected Neil to make the national team after graduation.
“Good thing you’re not there anymore.” “Jean still is.”
“Let Riko be King,” Kevin said, with the exaggerated enunciation of the thoroughly sloshed. “Most coveted, most protected. He’ll sacrifice every piece he has to protect his throne. Whatever. Me?” Kevin gestured again, meaning to indicate himself but too drunk to get his hand higher than his waist. “I’m going to be the deadliest piece on the board.”
Before he stepped on Kevin tapped the butt of his racquet against the floor and passed his stick to his other hand. He stroked to half-court head high and left-handed and the crowd went wild.
