Focusing on the composition of the shower and Tracey Emin herself being portrayed in Tracey Emin’s Sad Shower in New York, I found the shower as an ironic shelter that might not be fully protective at all times. Just as an umbrella does when I am in rainy days, sometimes the rain and wind pushes stronger against my tool, leading to impactful lessons that I learn from an umbrella, applicable in everyday life situations.
