Tracey Emin ( born 1963 ) is a British artist and part of the group known as Britartists or YBAs. Always at the centre of her own world, Tracey Emin has risen rapidly to a position of central prominence in the London art scene. Her Turner Prize show of 1999, which included her now famous soiled bed attracted all the attention, through it did not win the prize. She has made known her life, beliefs and feelings in the form of diaristic drawings, films, sculptures and written stories, in a manner full of compassion and wit as well as frustration and pain. Drawings remain at the heart of Emin's work.
