[ISEA96] Artist Statement: Monique Nahas — La Classe

Artist Statement

For a few years, we have been witnessing an impressive evolution in computer graphics due to the rise of new “tools” of the Virtual. The various shape or motion acquisition tools now make possible an achievement of a realism to the extent of movie quality. In particular the improvement of laser based devices makes easy fast and high resolution modelization at all scales. Of course we are not yet able to synthetize entirely any given scene, but the trend that brings synthesis always closer to reality provides the artists with a new fascinating domain for creation.
