"I’ve been in love with this man since I was 18” - Tracey Emin.

The contemporary British artist makes no secret of her fascination with Norwegian painter Edvard Munch. Born a hundred years apart, shared experiences of death and loneliness have inspired their iconic works.

Loss marked Munch’s early life – experiences later present in his painting’s psychological study of lonely, traumatised, anguished, and confused characters. He once said that, just as Leonardo da Vinci had dissected bodies, he dissected souls.

Emin identifies with Munch, going so far as to say she wanted to be the mother Munch lost too early. In her memoir, she touched on years of substance abuse and toxic relationships that pushed her creativity “to the wildest extremes.”

For more on these two tribulated artists, join writer Juan José Santos on ArtExplored to read about their artistic crossover in detail.
