Glasshour is an invitation to consider who you are and where you are, here and now.

We often treat the places we cross every day as if they were corridors. In a time defined by speed and multitasking, our attention is spread across many windows at once.

This steady stream of signals carries on while a file uploads or a message sends. It is an efficient space for sharing things with friends, colleagues and family.

In these moments of heightened activity, the artwork loosens your sense of depth and time, and shows the immediate place anew.

On display at 20:24, screens that usually show crisp, loud advertising dissolve into the soft, slow, liminal perspectives of Glasshour.

NORTHFIELD

Northfield is redefining the intersection of art, technology, and public engagement.
