• Tracey Emin and the Silence of Unreported Rape: Class, Race, and Artistic Confession

  

  Tracey Emin’s return to Margate marks a powerful new chapter in her life and art. After surviving cancer, she founded TKE Studios and helped revive the seaside town’s creative scene. Through deeply personal works confronting trauma, class, race, and unreported rape, Emin transforms confession into resilience and art into activism.
