Anthropomorphic Octopus for Underwater Sculpture Garden

Anthropomorphic Octopus for Underwater Sculpture Garden.

Final Construction of twelve 14 gauge laser cut panels (78" tall) mounted on twelve 1/2" square rods, being welded to their 3/8" x 48" x 96" base.

This piece will be set into concrete then lowered into 60 feet of water as part of the non-profit project coordinated by UMA (umafl.org/), South Walton Artificial Reef Association, and the Cultural Arts Aliance of South Walton Beach's first Underwater Sculpture Garden. This project will ultimately encourage growth of sea-life.
