The mid-to-late-'90s media obsession with Tracey Emin propelled her into the celebrity spotlight. Her Margate accent, her ruffled beauty, her openness – all dressed up in trademark Vivienne Westwood – brought both glamour and approachability to a previously rigid and elitist art world. Emin's work stood out for its brutal honesty; while others were lost for words she gave hers freely and spoke frankly about issues that people usually avoided. This is most evident in two films made with Sebastian Sharples: Why I Never Became a Dancer and How it Feels. While these films have often been overlooked by the wider media, they remain crucial to an understanding of Emin's practice.
