The Light of Venice at the Venetian Hotel, Las Vegas


Light of Venice - Carnivale 2, originally uploaded by Ross Ashton.

This year we have begun to deliver a series of 3D projection mapped shows to the Ventian Hotel in Las Vegas.  The commissions are to create Son et Lumières for the facade of The Clock Tower of the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, USA.
The Clock Tower is an exact scale model of the famous clock tower in St Marks Square, Venice Italy.
Each story takes a its inspiration from different aspects of the city and its history and recreates fantasies based on these themes.

Three shows have been delivered to date based on Clockwork, Carnivale and Canaletto.

This is a massive centre for creativity and includes several theatres and performance spaces, creative spaces and art galleries.
This projection work kicks off the Year of the Arts.
