class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">During Raqs\u2019 visit to the Dead Sea, it was the supersonic booms of a squadron of jets circling overhead that set in motion a creative process revolving around the meaning of salt in various cultural and historical contexts and as a philosophical and metaphysical metaphor. The key concept in this study is the notion of sediment in its metaphorical sense as denoting cultural and linguistic stratification. So, for example, salt appears in such linguistic expressions as \u201cthe salt of the earth\u201d and the biblical \u201csalt covenant\u201d, or the Hindi expression Namak Haram (\u201cdisloyal to salt\u201d), denoting an untrustworthy person. As a valuable mineral, salt carried crucial significance in economic and geographical networks up to the modern age, and therefore also symbolic significance \u2013 for instance, in Gandhi\u2019s Salt March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">The preoccupation with salt carries symbolic meanings that cross cultural boundaries but also change dramatically from place to place \u2013 and for this reason serves Raqs well for the purpose of exploring the relations between localism and globalism.<br>The supersonic booms they heard over the Dead Sea reminded the artists that sound travels faster in saltwater than in freshwater because the bulk modulus \u2013 the measure of a substance\u2019s resistance to uniform compression \u2013 of saltwater is higher than that of freshwater, and thus that supersonic sound exerts enormous pressure on the salt crystals. The same planes that are supposed to protect the sea and its salt, the artists surmised, could potentially harm it, and it is this ironic reversal of roles that lies at the heart of Raqs\u2019 work and relates to their ongoing meditation on the tension between man and nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex
