Ann Hamilton's Largest UK Installation 'We Will Sing' Opens at Salts Mill for Bradford 2025

Ann Hamilton, an American visual artist, has unveiled her largest solo installation in the UK, titled 'We Will Sing', at Salts Mill in Bradford, which will be on display until 2 November 2025. This immersive artwork is a key feature of Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture's events, alongside the Turner Prize. Marking her first significant UK project in over thirty years, it incorporates three auditory components: a solo performance by vocalist Emily Eagen of a 13th-century folk tune, an 18-minute choral piece with local choirs, and a reading booth for volunteers. The installation also showcases large figurines inspired by féve figures, a blue wool curtain, and community workshops. After the opening, Hamilton interacted with visitors, highlighting the sensory aspects of the experience.
