I absolutely love this ICONIC image of DEVON
REF> PICTURE PERFECT Nick Knight’s take on Devon Aoki in Alexander McQueen for Visionaire (1997).
True ... he never looks back ... the New York Times, April 15, 2007 sums it up rather well ... but now that you mentioned the ' futuristic' element I'm just wondering if to much technology TODAY doesn't take the 'heart' away or is creating certain distance from the essence of things ... It is a question that whether we agree or disagree deserves consideration in a time where people seems to be craving for back to basics in order to rediscover new things ... just like in music, the arts, films etc ?
" his luscious, uncompromisingly contemporary images never look backward. Whether he is shooting the cover of British Vogue, an advertising campaign for Swarovski or an album sleeve for Bjork, Knight pushes himself relentlessly, experimenting with complex technologies to ensure that each new image is even more beautifully composed than the last. “I’ve never seen him repeat anything,” says the photographer Craig McDean. “He’s always looking for something new.”
