Jason deCaires Taylor 's Alluvia was installed in the River Stour in Canterbury , Kent , last week .
The sculpture replaced two similar female forms which had been in the water since 2008 .
Canterbury City Council's Facebook page has been flooded with negative comments.
One wrote: "I can't be the only person who finds this deeply offensive. How did the council not see the link to women as victims of crime or the sad fact so many drown off the Kent coast as refugees?".
Mr Ross said the "confected anger" around the sculpture was "unnecessary" and that the charity was simply "trying to do its best" He said: "I have yet to meet a dead body that lights up in the night" Taylor has sculptures in marine locations around the world including Australia , Mexico , Grenada and Norway .
