But not your normal portrait. Not something I can hang on a wall and hark at my lack of fine features, you understand, but a portrait made through music.
Now, this may seem strange to tell, but this meant sitting in the centre of a circle of musicians, and they would improvise music that formed a portrait of me.
It's hard to describe without actually being there, but the experience was amazing. They played soemthing off the top of their collective heads that was utterly beautiful and genuinely brought me to tears. I won't say that I live up to what they played of me all the time, but it felt like the person I would like to be. I may even put it up on here sometime.
So as some small recompense for the wonderful music they had played for me (and which I managed - with their approval - to record), I decided that I would try and take photos of them in action, and spread the word about their awesome work.
So on my website now, you will find my new gallery of Epiphany. Check them out.
