SHOWstudio

besides being one of the best fashion photographers of our time, nick knight is a brilliant art promoter and businessman.  his founding of SHOWstudio to offer rare and bespoke artefacts created for iconic fashion shoots and catwalk shows allows the general public to participate and perhaps even own a piece of fashion history (if you can afford).  he also invites artists to hand-craft their creations in front of webcams in his Live Studio. it is his belief that "showing the entire creative process - from conception to completion - is beneficial for the artist, the audience and the art itself".  of course, the art itself will be for sale through his shop afterwards.

fleet ilya

fleet ilya is not for the faint of hearts. take caution before you hit their website (make sure no kids are looking over your shoulders). the creepiness of some of the images, as kr put it, "leave little to the imagination". nonetheless, it doesn't take away from the beauty of the work.
