The Ships Project is an amazing endeavour that brings vitality and life to our hidden maritime history. The 1,000 Tyres Project is the perfect focus for engaging us in our underwater landscape and the need to manage our planet with greater care. It feeds the imagination and cleans-up the environment. The whole concept is simply perfect. Well done to all involved.
