Meaning & Analysis
This etching was created by Tracey Emin in 2010, released in an edition size of 100 and forming part of the Animals collection. At the centre of the composition is a delicate etching of a dragonfly, rendered in black ink. To the right of this focal etching are daubs of ink, revealing Emin’s spontaneous approach to her printing process.
With a characteristically dainty handling of line, Emin’s Dragon Fly is testament to the artist’s mastery over the printed medium. Like many other works from our Animals collection of her work, this etching bears an unmistakably Emin handling of line. Despite the relative simplicity of subject matter, Dragon Fly showcases Emin’s constant experimentation with printmaking.
