The Coral Throne

A Sculpture for Pompano Beach Florida and Shipwreck Parks "Lady Luck"

Welcome to... 
Pompano Beach!


Pompano Beach is a vibrant, welcoming coastal community with one of Florida’s most beautiful shorelines. Just offshore, Shipwreck Park’s Lady Luck has become a premier dive site — rich with art, ecology, and imagination. 

🎨 The Coral Throne: 

A Sculpture with Two Lives. Turtle-safe and coral-ready, The  Coral Throne is designed to live twice.

First as public art on the beach in Pompano Beach for 1 year.
Then as a living reef beneath the sea.

📅 Timeline: 

🪧 Land Installation: 2026
🌊 Submersion: At Shipwreck Park, on the deck of The Lady Luck: 2027 

✨ Why It Matters: 

Built from marine-grade steel and other sustainably sourced, reef-friendly materials, this sculpture evolves over time — inviting connection, reflection, and exploration.
