The Lost City of Atlantis is a large, underwater, multi-piece sculpture by a local artist, known simply as “Foots”. The artist had a dream...
To create his version of the Lost City of Atlantis. The scale of the project is huge, and his ambitious plans involve over 300,000 lbs of
sculptures, which will be placed off the north shore of Cayman Brac in a large sandy area, at a dive site called Radar Reef.
The dive site consists of the Archway of Atlantis, of which the two bases alone weigh 21,000 lbs each, the Elders’ Way, a pathway lined
with 5-foot temple columns, leading to the Inner Circle of Light. This will be marked by 11 columns, in the center of which will stand the
2,600lb Sundial on a 5,800 lb base. This year, will be the Pyramid of Atlantis, which Foots estimates will be in excess of 40,000 lbs
and will be the largest sculpture in the Lost City.
there will only be 100 statues of Altantians who will be created after real people, the reason for this will be known one day. In the very near
future several new structures of the city are planned as it continue to grow. We invite you to meet the people of Atlantis and explore The
Lost City. Dive through the Archway into the Circle of Light. Read the writings on the Scriptures of the civilization lost. Let your imagination
guide you as you discover everything that Atlantis has to offer.
The first step towards making a figure for Cayman Brac’s Lost City of Atlantis is finding a willing subject, according to the City’s creator,
the artist known simply as ‘Foots’. Located off the north coast of the Brac, the City is fast gaining a reputation as a unique artificial reef,
which is not costing the Government of the Cayman Islands a penny to make.
