Red Head
1982-84
In 1982 Nessim attended the annual conference of the Special Interest Group for Computer Graphics (SIGGRAPH), which encouraged artists to share ideas and experience. At the time, few artists had direct access to the expensive computer hardware and proprietary software needed to create commercially viable artworks.
