M/M, A Retrospective

Biophilia Album Sleeve

“This image is the front cover of the single ‘Cosmogony’ from Biophilia. For this album, a series of images, all variations of the same composition, were produced for each of the key songs of the album. It somehow echoes the image we did for Björk‘s album Vespertine, which was released in 2001 and it gathers all the visual discoveries we have been working on with Inez and Vinoodh since the making of the cover of Vespertine. But, it is not just a drawing over a photograph–it is a hybrid image, a 3D-rendered image at human scale.”
