About this audio guide
This audio guide to SALT on the Oslo waterfront starts with a single wooden rack from the fishing coast of Arctic Norway and follows it south. It touches an island art project, a Sámi word for a hidden treasure, and the sauna masters who lead a ritual among strangers. Best heard standing on the quay with the timber pyramids and the fjord in view.
