Bjork x Nick Knight – To Lee, With Love, Nick (Alexander McQueen Tribute)


Fashion photographer Nick Knight has released a video in commemoration of late designer Alexander McQueen’s impressive, inspirational body of work, featuring a soundtrack by Bjork, another of McQueen’s admirers. Like McQueen’s clothes, Bjork’s score presents a compelling paradox of strength and fragility – decidedly minor horn chords back up the singer’s voice as it grows in power and certainty, complimenting Knight’s stunning visuals. It’s an incredibly moving song, appropriate for such a moving short film. Even if you don’t know much about McQueen, it’s worth a watch, and definitely a listen.
