Dwell Time (2025-2026) is an evolving ambient video cycle projected on the entrance to the former Burlington Square Mall on Church Street, as part of Downtown Lights.

Dwell Time is a measure of how long visitors spend in an online or in-person space. Long durations can lead to loss of original purpose, a phenomenon called the Gruen Effect after Austrian architect Victor Gruen, the originator of the American shopping mall.

Curated and designed by Vanish Works. Featuring artists from Vermont, New York and Montréal.
