Details from the catalogue

‘I’ve always liked the expression like a dog with a bit between the teeth – knowledge and learning is like that, once you get started you just can’t let go, and apparently sometimes for dogs when they shag – it’s like that they just can’t let go = and somehow I started thinking about sex, and that’s when I drew the naked women with a smile right across her face – I enjoy what I do ‘

The Artist

Tracey Emin

Tracey Emin is an English contemporary artist who was born in 1963. She works across a variety of mediums such as needlework, painting, sculptures, video, photography, drawing and installation. The content of Emin’s work often reflects elements of the expressive and confessional and her installations are bold and profound, as she is unafraid to depict aspects of her own life to form her compositions. At the Royal Academy of Arts, Emin offers advice and talks to developing artists in her position as Professor of Drawing. She is sometimes considered in relation to the Stuckism group, which was founded by her previous partner, Billy Childish, after suggesting that Emin was stuck in the past.
