It’s a proud moment for WoW to host the Liverpool launch of 
The Singh Twins
' latest book, 
Slaves of Fashion: Art of the Singh Twins – Personal Reflections on Hidden Stories of Empire, Colonialism, and Their Legacies
 (Manchester University Press, 2025).
This richly illustrated, artist-designed book showcases 
Slaves of Fashion
, an 
award-winning series of portrait-based allegorical and narrative works
 by contemporary British artists The Singh Twins. 
Slaves of Fashion
 explores 
diverse histories and legacies of empire and colonialism
 through the history of 
Indian textiles
. It is a global story of 
conflict, conquest, exploitation, slavery, intercultural exchange, and changing fashion.
 The series connects these themes to the trade in luxury goods during an age of maritime exploration, colonisation, and industrialisation—all driven by the commercial interests of competing and expanding European imperial powers, from the fifteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries. The book includes detailed interpretations of the artworks, representing The Singh Twins’ personal reflections on this story and its relevance to topical debates around racism, cultural ownership, decolonisation, ethical trade, and consumerism. It also offers insight into the making of the artworks, which draw on academic research, historical archives, and museum collections.
The Singh Twins will be in conversation 
Bryan Biggs,
 Director of Cultural Legacies at the Bluecoat. The will discussion will be illustrated with images from the ‘Slaves of Fashion’ series and followed by a signing of the 
Slaves to Fashion
 publication.
The Singh Twins
 are internationally recognised contemporary British artists, known for their highly detailed narrative, symbolic, and eclectic style, combining hand-painted and digital techniques. Through their work, which they describe as Past-Modern, they comment on modern-day society, politics, and culture, challenge Eurocentrism in the art world, and demonstrate the contemporary relevance of history and tradition. They have each received many awards, including being made Honorary Citizens of Liverpool in 2009.

安菲爾德球場

安菲爾德一直是一個不錯的體育場。科普把氣氛推向了另一個看台。現在,他們兩個站已經延長了,我擔心氣氛可能會消失,特別是在上層的密封,但經歷了幾個座位的位置,我不得不說它一如既往的好。可能是歐洲最好的體育場之一。多年來,外觀也得到了很大的改善,我們做了體育場之旅,非常好。每個角落的音頻之旅。😃

我不是披頭士迷，但是經過這次遊覽仍然會被他們的傳奇故事所感動。而且發現，有些耳熟能詳的歌曲，竟然是他們寫的。欣賞lenon的才華，更喜歡麥卡特尼的溫柔與克制。適個不錯的遊覽地。

利物浦大教堂

Yushanshan

這個教堂外表平平無奇，進入裏面之後真的會被驚艷到，一進去就感覺很漂亮，裏面超級大，建議周日來，這裏每周日都會有唱詩班，可以跟着本地人一起祈禱，感受一下氣氛
