Leaving A Dress In The Dead Sea For 2 Months Causes This

Dead Sea Dress

Israeli artist Sigalit Landau submerged a dress — a replica of the traditional Hasidic one worn by the character Leah in the seminal Yiddish play “The Dybbuk” — into the Dead Sea in 2014 and captured its evolution over time in photographs. The sea’s salt-rich waters crystallized the dress.

The images, some of which are shown below, are on display at the Marlborough Contemporary museum in London.
