I love Tracey

Yes I do

I'm not ashamed to say so

Would that I could express

The magnitude of

My gratitude

For your immense artistic

Contribution

But little can I say

To voice my

Appreciation of the

Immeasurable meaning

Of your work

To me

This adoring

Tracey Emin: A Second Life, Until 31 August 2026

To me, Tracey Emin is among the most important artists of the 21st (and late 20th) Century. Why? Because of a deeper meaning, the personal, the tragic yet uplifting, not about what you see but what you feel. Ask me who I think is more important, I would struggle to name any other artist.
