À Miami, un embouteillage sous la mer devient un refuge pour les coraux - Creapills
- Concrete Coral places twenty life-sized cars underwater near Miami Beach to form an artificial reef.
- ReefLine aims to become a multi-mile underwater park combining art and ecological restoration off Miami.
- Corals will be attached to the cars with Coral Lok technology to create a living forest over time.
- The project is the first major step of ReefLine, a long-term underwater park around 11 kilometers long.
- The installation combines art, marine biology research, and public mediation.
- Miami has lost about 90% of its corals, motivating ReefLine as an open-air laboratory.
- Visitors can access the site during Miami Art Week via a Meditation Buoy above the site.
- Each sculpture weighs up to sixteen tons and was tested against hurricane simulations.
- The project is masterplanned by OMA and led by Ximena Caminos as part of ReefLine’s development.
- The project emphasizes education and scientific messaging about ocean fragility.
