===Installations=== {{BLP sources section|date=May 2016}} Emin has created a number of installation art pieces including ''Poor Thing (Sarah and Tracey)'' (2001) which was made up of two hanging frames, hospital gowns, a water bottle and wire. A similar installation called ''Feeling Pregnant III'' (2005) made up of fabric hung off wooden and metal coat hangers and stands was a later creation for Emin. Both these installations touch further on Emin's relationship with pregnancy and abortion and can be related to [[Louise Bourgeois]]' sculptures such as ''Untitled'' (1996), a mobile of hanging clothes, and ''Untitled'' (2007), a series of standing bronze sculptures. ''The Perfect Place to Grow'' (2001) was a video installation with a set consisting of a wooden birdhouse, a DVD (shot on Super 8), monitor, trestle, plants, wooden ladder. This installation has been exhibited at the Tate Britain in 2004 in their room dedicated to Emin's work and also White Cube in 2001. It was dedicated to her father, creating the bird house as "a tiny home for my dad", and Emin thought of the works' title from the idea of "nature and nurture".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tate.org.uk/btseries/bb/traceyemin/explore/shed_home.html|title=BT Series β Tracey Emin|website=Tate Etc.|access-date=6 May 2016}}</ref> ''Knowing My Enemy'' (2002) was a large-scale installation created by Emin for her [[Modern Art Oxford]] solo show of that year. Consisting of reclaimed wood and steel, Emin created a wooden "look-out" house upon a long, broken, wooden pier. ''It's Not the Way I Want to Die'' (2005) was another large-scale installation, part of Emin's 2005 solo show at White Cube. Emin created a large rollercoaster track with reclaimed timber and metal. Displayed in the same show was a smaller installation work called ''Self Portrait'' (2005) which consisted of a tin bath, bamboo, wire and neon light.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://whitecube.com/exhibitions/exhibition/tracey_emin_hoxton_square_2005|title=Exhibitions β White Cube|publisher=whitecube.com|access-date=6 May 2016}}</ref> Another related installation ''Sleeping With You'' (2005) consisted of painted reclaimed timber and a thin neon light across a dark wall.<ref name="autogenerated3"/>
