NOTE TO SELF—
Bobby Clark

Note to Self is a series of inspirational vignettes—where we invite creatives that we admire to share with our JANE community the quote, lyric, recipe, or piece of advice that they keep returning to and why. An intimate look inside their creative universe.

Here, artist Bobby Clark shares the quote she loves most by fellow artist Tracey Emin.

'Welcome always
What ever mood
No matter how tiered
I love you'
—Tracey Emin

When I am feeling lost or confused in both work and life, I return to the artists I love. The work of Tracey Emin brings me back to the realisation that life is a balance of pain and beauty. That our experiences can be transformed into art. The most painful can be still and the chaos can be calm, we just have to adjust our vision and how we see the world and everything around us.
