Srečko Meh / Druga Godba, new Striptiz portrait

Srečko Meh is an art director of Druga Godba, festival of ethno music from the whole world.

My first idea for the portrait is to illustrate their logo. I wanted that Srečko would undress and then dress all sorts of instruments. Like headphones, CD, drum sticks would peak from his ears, LP plate would cover his naughty parts and many, many other instruments. I would make some sort of tribe’s shaman with instruments. The realization of the idea demanded quite some effort and time. We were trying to organize everything and for more then a week we didn’t progress at all. Yesterday there was a deadline for the picture and I decided we will not make the picture as my first idea was, so I decided to simplify the concept radically. I went to a music store Hartman take a look of instruments, call Srečko to the store, asked him to bite a glossy cymbal and make the portrait in one minute.

Technically: I used detached SB900 up and left and used 14mm lens.
