Photograph - Group photo, 2001

  • COL photo of a man, wearing a suit, shirt and tie. He is standing at a lectern. To his right, there is a large projector screen displaying a slide projection. The text heading on the slide says, "Fibromyalgia : what is it?", followed by dot points (illegible) under the sub-headings "1940's", "1970's", and "1980's". Above the screen, affixed to the ceiling, there is a small green "EXIT" sign. Behind the screen is a large black curtain. On the wall behind him, there is a large wooden-framed mirror on one side (partially obscured by the curtain) and a two-light sconce (wall lamp) on the other. There is a small table next to him covered with a white tablecloth, on top of which sits a laptop computer. In the foreground, there is a view of the audience from behind.
