Tracey Emin, b.1963

Untitled1994

In this work Emin recalls daydreaming while staring out a window. In her own handwriting, she recounts her memories of a first meeting with someone,. By laying the text out somewhat unusually in four sections, an image of a window frame, or perhaps a cross, is created by the negative space.

‘Other Men’s Flowers’ is a portfolio of text-based prints by fifteen London artists curated by Joshua Compston (1970-96) and published by The Paragon Press. Compston took the title, ‘Other Men’s Flowers’, from an anthology of wartime poetry compiled by Field-Marshal Viscount Wavell (1883-1950).

    English artist Tracey Emin attended the Medway College of Design, Rochester; Maidstone College of Art and the Royal College of Art, London. Using a range of media including paint, drawing, photography, needlework, sculpture, video and installation, Emin produces deeply personal works inspired by the events of her own life and the tradition of feminist discourse. Emin became known as a member of the YBA group in the 1990s. She was nominated for the Turner prize in 1999 and chosen to join the Royal Academy of Arts in 2007. The same year she represented Britain at the Venice Biennale. Major solo exhibitions include the Hayward Gallery, London in 2011 and Turner Contemporary, Margate in 2012.
