Il Momento, LV
2007
Running Time: 11 minutes
The video Il Momento, LV documents expectations of ideal love and romance in the replicated canals of The Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Complete with waterways and singing gondoliers, the hotel offers an experience of being in Venice, Italy. By purchasing a ticket, anyone who wants to enact a fantasy that has been presented to them through books, films and television can ride a gondolier and attempt to experience a moment of bliss. However, what most find is that fulfilling and enacting representations of ideal love is sometimes more difficult than imagined.
