Meaning & Analysis

The work of Emin is, at times, painfully honest and intimate. You Forgot Who You Are is certainly no exception to this. Even though the etching is simply rendered, it offers a view into Emin’s personal life and experiences.

A figure - perhaps Emin herself - sits at a dining table with their head despairingly in their hands. Behind this troubled figure, another is consoling this figure by holding them close. Even though the work is clearly personal, Emin still evokes a universality with these anonymous figures, conveying the importance of friendship when we forget who we are.

  • 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).
