The collaboration with Grace Jones begun with a Dazed and Confused magazine commissioned Cover feature which Grace aptly defined as an "Anti-fashion" Shoot. The great and joyous creative connection we experienced that day on set, naturally developed into a series of video experiments based on Chris's remix and re-recording of the song "Williams blood" from Grace's album"Hurricane".
