I did not expect to find Tracey Emin's neon sign artwork in Shoreditch when I recently visited the area. The neon sign, "I Whisper to my past; do I have another choice", is placed up at ground level next to a former car wash around the corner from Shoreditch High Street station. There are apparently twenty-two of her neon artworks around the city until the middle of March. The works highlight her newest exhibition (called "A Second Life") at the Tate, and the exhibition shows what she has been doing since the 1990s. The artist actually lived in the area.
Tracey Emin still shows her work across London at sculpture festivals, and one of her signs hangs at King's Cross. She also decorated one of London's Christmas trees.
