Tracey Emin’s Neon Confessions – Creative Inspiration

Tracey Emin’s Neon Confessions – Creative Inspiration | Write In Color

neon sign art and creative inspiration


What happens when you combine your most intimate thoughts with neon?
Magic.

Tracey Emin, a provocative British artist, uses neon to shed
light (quite literally)

on what it feels like to love and live
passionately. Using neon to mimic her own

handwriting, Emin infuses her
thoughts of love and lust and hope and desire

with color. What we at
Write In Color love about her art is that she is bold

enough to put her
must vulnerable musings out there for all of us to read.

There’s no
symbolism. Her art just is what it is.


And what it is, is glorious.


Some of my favorite lines from her neon art pieces include, “I listen
to the ocean and all I hear is you,”

“You should have loved ME,” and
“With you I want to live.”
