They did photos of Bjork floating on a door in what appears to be a flooded room.The only slight problem I have with M and M is that their work is so intensely retouched I get the feeling of airlessness(i'm sure there is a better word) from it.It feels like they should allow some of the natural mistakes back in,let the image live.

Yes I do remember now, It was really cool, really dreamy. Could it have been in Pop or Another Mag? I have all issues of both but cant remember which or when it was (But i seem to remember it was Styled by Camile B.W.
As for alowing for natural mistakes in, I do know what you mean, but i think that doesnt work well because M and M create a kind of fantasy image which is not supposed to be 'Keeping it real' .
Wierdly enough theres a different kind of hyper-reality to Nick Knights' work which seems to let these two worlds exist together- excelently shown in his oct 2005 story for ID "Paradise Lost". Im particularly interested in these contradictions because this seems to set Nick Knight apart from other forward thinking image makers.
