Meaning & Analysis

This etching was executed by Young British Artist, Tracey Emin, in 2011. At the centre of the composition, Emin has sketchily rendered an aeroplane flying through the sky. The body of this aeroplane points towards the words from which this work takes its title, written in Emin’s distinctive handwriting.

This delicate etching of an aeroplane soaring through the sky is an instance of Emin’s romanticism of travelling and removing oneself from the everyday to “another place”. As much as Emin has been committed to London and Margate in her life and work, she has always seen something magical in travelling and its ability to connect people. This theme came to its apex in Emin’s 2018 installation at St Pancras International Station, I Want My Time With You, and reveals Emin’s unique ability to make the mundane intensely romantic.

Tracey Emin, born in 1963, stands as a fearless provocateur in the contemporary art scene. A trailblazer of the Young British Artists (YBA) movement in the late 1980s, the artist has sparked conversation and controversy for decades. Confronting themes of love, trauma and femininity with great vulnerability, Emin's work is a visceral tapestry of her life and has forged an intimate dialogue between artist and audience. In 1999, this raw approach to storytelling won her a nomination to the Turner Prize and, in 2007, it got her a coveted spot as a Royal Academician at the Royal Academy of Arts (RA).
