O N E E V E R Y O N E | 2012 (ongoing)
The O N E E V E R Y O N E series began with The Warhol Museum's Factory Direct: Pittsburgh, a 2012 project partnering artists with Pittsburgh-based businesses. Employees from Bayer MaterialScience LLC—manufacturers of the membrane—and the Pittsburgh Post Gazette were photographed holding work-related objects up to the surface of the film. The Post Gazette printed the images as newspapers that were distributed at the exhibition and in a special edition to Pittsburgh households.
In 2014, Hamilton brought the material and its unique optical qualities to the Artist-in-Residency program at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Docents, volunteers, curators, and museum staff were photographed holding works from the collection. For many it was a singular opportunity to physically touch an object selected for its emotional and intellectual connection but previously held only in the eye.
In each of these occasions, participants were also photographed empty handed, alone behind the membrane. In March 2014, the O N E E V E R Y O N E booth traveled to the ADAA The Art Show at the Park Avenue Armory in New York, where over 700 participants were photographed.

Small unedited versions, were printed on site and posted for the length of the fair. Everyone photographed received by mail an ephemera portrait of someone from the series.
In the summer of 2014, selected images were printed and shown as a part of the Transformer Station's UNKNOWN:Pictures of Strangers exhibition. A limited edition newspaper was produced in correspondence with the show.
