Produced in 2011, this etching is typical of Tracey Emin’s spontaneous and fluid style. Emin’s Beautiful Girl is captured here in profile, with three eyes unusually positioned about her face in a Cubist-inspired style. Through her loose mark making and quick application of ink, the monochromatic print is given a lively and textural quality.
This simple black ink etching is testament to Emin’s constant experimentation across media, while staying true to her distinctive and impulsive style. The loosely executed portrait of this Beautiful Girl has a Picasso-esque appeal by capturing the sitter in profile, with her eyes abstracted and unusually placed. The work is just one instance of Emin’s constantly mutating style, and her unrelenting exploration of femininity and womanhood.
