Beautiful. I love Tracey Emin’s work. She, like you here, is able to put complex nuanced ideas and feelings, into something tangible. Which to me is art.

Loved reading this piece. Thank you for a beautiful journal of your street walking in Bloomsbury. Also love the mitten and all it represents. Sad to say I have been one of those who vocally poo-pooed the ‘Unmade Bed’ all those years ago. I didn’t understand .... fortunately we mature and evolve to a place where there is no either/or but also. I’m a late developer.♥️

Evocative and wonderful. The kind of writing that defines Substack.

I loved reading this it made me feel like I was there with you searching for the sculpture. I’m glad you found it and enjoyed your thoughts on art.

Thanks for taking us on this adventure with you. I like to explore in similar ways and the way you write of the experience and thoughts that emerge from your adventure - makes my soul sing.
