Location: Dead Sea | En Gedi, Israel
The Dead Sea is the lowest point on Earth at 1200 feet below sea level. It is located on the border of Jordan and Israel and is divided in half by the 1949 Armistice Agreements Line. The sea is also a major source of excavation for minerals used in commercial cosmetic products. Additionally, it was a candidate for the most recent elections of the new 7 Wonders of the World, in which Israel, Palestine and Jordan submitted a joint application hoping to win and preserve the site for years to come.
This work is a subtle tip of the hat to one of my favorite artists Janine Antoni and a commentary on religious land borders based on my time spent in Israel.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
