BARRIE D'ROZARIO MURPHY, Minneapolis / CHAMBERS HOTEL / 2009
Awards:
Overview
Credits
Synopsis
This material was installed on monitors throughout the hotel's bar.
Please note there is no audio for the 30 minute film.We created a 30-minute “video art piece” for the hotel that was designed to provoke and draw attention to the bar area. Video monitors mounted over the bar show apparently live surveillance shots of areas throughout the hotel, including guest room interiors, and “guests”. Customers at the hotel bar see more, though, than just private scenes of “guests” in bed, or in the bathroom. They also see provocative scenes that are obviously staged, eg a nun praying, a couple ballroom dancing, a couple having an argument, a man in a chicken costume, a blow-up doll, an alien, a clown, etc.
