"United Colors of Women" was selected by Neal Benezra, to be exhibited in The Art of Digital Show 2007 in San Diego.

This fall Steven and his team produced The Art of Digital Show 2007, a world-class international exhibition of digital art. Neal Benezra, the Director of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, was the Judge for this exhibit. Out of 2796 entries from 40 countries, he selected 83 framed fine art pieces, 18 video art pieces, a 3D modelled sculpture, a digitally designed textile piece, and one interactive piece -- the best of the best.

"AURORE" is part of 12 images that have been selected of the finalists for the contest "Vue 3D environment competition 2007.
The difficulty was that it was not allowed to do any postwork. Therefore, this image is 100% 3D.

Software used: Vue Infinite 6

One Picture is Worth 1000 Words.



Talent and all that for the most part is nothing but hogwash. Any schoolboy with a little aptitude might very well draw better than I perhaps; but what he most often lacks is the tough yearning for realization, the teeth-grinding obstinacy and saying: even though I know I'm not capable of it, I’m still going to do it.

LACDA 'TOP 40' JURIED EXHIBIT

April 10-May 3, 2008
Reception Thursday April 10 7-9pm

Selected work: "United Colors of Women"

Half Vietnamese, half French, I’m born in Senegal West Africa in 1959. In Paris I studied 3D at The ADAC Paris Ateliers in 1990 and I was impressed by the creative use of visual computing. For a long period of time I wasn’t able to use those technologies for creating art but was only writing lines of programs.
I have been selected for the following exhibitions:
Red Cross Summer Exhibition 2008 june 7
The Art of Digital Show 2007 in San Diego
The 'Top 40' LACDA Juried Competition 2008 in Los Angeles
And I was rewarded as being among the 12 finalists of the Vue 3D Environment Competition 2006


I grew up in Chad often looking at the stars during nights, it was not for fun but it was just too hot to sleep inside the house. Sleeping with the sky above me was my first emotional experience of the idea of time without end. Later, I decided to search for my real roots with the help of long yoga training. During my practice at the ADAC(where I was learning 3D modeling and Animation), I was so impressed by the creative use of visual computing that I decided to continue in this area of digital art. I can define my art like pointless and useful with a drop of Zen spirit. Like a tale it’s a story which depicts my vision and experiences in life, by mixing imagination and reality.
At present, I use in my creative process the software Vue6 Infinite for rendering, Poser 7 for characters and Shade for modeling.

You see, I'm trying to work hard with my team to finish this picture; but creating art, even by using a computer, is still a process that lies in the hands of the artist.
