Tracey Emin — Hades, Hades, Hades
Tracey Emin

Hades, Hades, Hades

Tracey Emin's "Hades, Hades, Hades" is a 2009 screenprint on hand stitched cotton collage that combines commercial printing techniques with the artist's characteristic textile-based practice. The work's repetitive invocation of the underworld's name creates an incantatory quality, while the integration of hand stitching introduces an intimate, autobiographical dimension typical of Emin's emotional and introspective approach. Published by Counter Editions in an edition of 200, the work measures 410 x 520mm and represents Emin's engagement with conceptual printmaking and mixed media processes.
