submerged statue

A submerged statue is a sculpture that has been placed beneath the surface of a body of water, such as a lake, river, or ocean. These statues can serve various purposes, including artistic installations, memorials, or habitat enhancements for aquatic life. The water environment can protect the sculpture from weathering and vandalism, offering a unique visual experience for divers and snorkelers. Over time, marine growth may develop on the statue, creating an ever-changing natural artwork. Submerged statues often require special design considerations to withstand water pressure and corrosion, ensuring their longevity underwater.
