Frozen people PRe-text & imagery

The key images we are using are from the work by Jason deCaires Taylor. These amazing works are underwater sculptures that have been situated off the coast of Mexico and Grenada. See the full video here.  For our project we have created a fictional frame to launch our drama. 
Grenada album    National Geographic album

Note:  We added a 'fictional' frame for the use of these images in our Rolling Role drama. 'The Water Reckoning' and 'Ardus Unda' frame were developed by Sue Davis in consultation with the founding project team. 
MUSIC - for the Jason deCaires Taylor clip on Youtube is 'Wilderness' by Philip Guyler - it can be puchases online at audionetwork 

Water reckoning project images

Images created at different sites throughout the project - in some cases these informed the 'rolling' of the project. Others may now wish to use them as further pre-text material for new versions of the project. Please acknowledge the original sources.
