"She sailed all of the seas and oceans so deep,
In a ship called Calypso, Cousteau he did creep.
He shared with us memories, this learned man,
Of an undersea world, like no one can.
He lived a long life of passions down under,
So in death he should live in this land full of wonder.
A spirit approached him in the shape of a fish,
To take him and his cargo wherever he wish.
They traveled about and gathered some friends,
And had the grandest adventures that time transcends.
And what can we learn from this glorious tale?
Follow your passions and be ready to set sail…”
—Paul Lotz
Spirit of Calypso is a bronze sculpture by Paul Lotz that captures the mythical beauty of the sea. Inspired by legendary ocean explorer Jacques Cousteau and the Greek nymph Calypso, this piece blends marine elements into a dynamic composition. A human-like fish, surrounded by flowing seaweed and ocean creatures, guides a graceful mermaid ascending from the depths.
With meticulous attention to texture and form, Lotz’s work brings mythology and nature together in an enchanting tribute to the mysteries of the sea. Spirit of Calypso is a must-see for those who are drawn to the magic of the ocean and the tales it inspires.
