I Followed You to The Sun

A radiant declaration rendered in Emin's signature handwritten style, this neon work glows in warm sunshine yellow, transforming a deeply personal statement of devotion into luminous light. The cursive text captures the artist's characteristic blend of vulnerability and longing, suggesting both romantic pursuit and an almost mythological chase toward warmth and illumination. The chosen medium amplifies the emotional intensity of the words, making the confession feel simultaneously intimate and impossibly vast.
