Meaning & Analysis

Poetic and romantic, You Loved Me Like A Distant Star is a poignant work about love and longing. Like many of Emin’s other works in our Neons collection, the piece captures these lyrical words in her instantly recognisable handwriting. Contained within an illuminated pink love heart, the work carries overtones of intimacy and therefore speaks to a universal audience about the sometimes painful longing for a distant love. Coupled with the handwritten element of the work, the illumination of the neon light itself - like the distant star she refers to - is best seen in the dark. The work is therefore typical of Emin’s oeuvre in its exploration of love, loss, and longing.

  • Tracey Emin, born in 1963, stands as a fearless provocateur in the contemporary art scene. A trailblazer of the Young British Artists (YBA) movement in the late 1980s, the artist has sparked conversation and controversy for decades. Confronting themes of love, trauma and femininity with great vulnerability, Emin's work is a visceral tapestry of her life and has forged an intimate dialogue between artist and audience. In 1999, this raw approach to storytelling won her a nomination to the Turner Prize and, in 2007, it got her a coveted spot as a Royal Academician at the Royal Academy of Arts (RA).
