Journalists from all over the world were stationed a considerable distance away from the naked group of Israelis as the photo shoot began.
Tunick said he believes Israel is the only country in the Middle East with the religious freedom for one of his trademark mass shoots of nude volunteers. The famous visual artist claimed his is not a pioneer, but only following the footsteps of superb Israeli artists. Tunick insisted that the Dead Sea shoot was not about challenging the region's delicate religious sensitivities or the turmoil and conflict associated with the Middle East. He said his aim is to deliver an environmental message highlighting the plight of the world's lowest and saltiest body of water, which is rapidly drying up. 'Hopefully my work with this will be associated with the human-made natural disaster at hand, and not with war,' he said. Tunick's has shot nude installations in Australia, the U.S., Brazil, France, England, Spain, Switzerland, Holland and Austria. The artist has been documenting the nude figure in public through photography and video since 1992. His largest work to date involved 18,000 people posing in Mexico City in 2007. He has said the title of the work refers to the sameness of individuals, regardless of their sexual preferences. Mr Tunick maintains his work is not about exhibitionism or eroticism but instead he reveals the vulnerability of life in a rough city landscape. However sometimes authorities have disagreed, particularly in the U.S., where Tunick has been arrested seven times.
