On Tuesday, the artists held an open house to view the mosaic. It s now tucked away inside a building in the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. In a few months, crews plan to install it at Kellogg Park at the Shores, a spot a smaller mosaic once occupied. That mosaic, installed in 2008, began crack and was removed. Alexander says the new one will be able to last a lot longer. Renowned oceanographer Walter Munk, one of the project s main backers, said he hopes the mosaic makes a lasting impression. People who don t dive and who don t really realize can get a chance to see what s going on, he said. Munk and his wife Mary donated more than $300,000 to the project. They hope to raise another $200,000 through the Walter Munk Foundation to pay for the rest of the piece and the installation, which could happen in the next few months. Copyright 2019 .
