Emin's relationship with the artist and musician [[Billy Childish]] led to the name of the [[Stuckism]] movement in 1999. Childish, who had mocked her new affiliation to conceptualism in the early 1990s, was told by Emin, "Your paintings are stuck, you are stuck! – Stuck! Stuck! Stuck!" (that is, stuck in the past for not accepting the YBA approach to art). He recorded the incident in the poem, "Poem for a Pissed Off Wife" published in ''Big Hart and Balls'' [[Hangman Books]] 1994, from which [[Charles Thomson (artist)|Charles Thomson]], who knew them both, later coined the term Stuckism.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.arthistoryarchive.com/arthistory/stuckism/|title=The Stuckism Art History Archive|website=www.arthistoryarchive.com|access-date=2017-03-11}}</ref>

Emin and Childish had remained on friendly terms up until 1999, but the activities of the Stuckist group offended her and caused a lasting rift with Childish. In a 2003 interview, she was asked about the Stuckists:
{{blockquote|I don't like it at all… I don't really want to talk about it. If your wife was stalked and hounded through the media by someone she'd had a relationship with when she was 18, would you like it? That's what happened to me. I don't find it funny, I find it a bit sick, and I find it very cruel, and I just wish people would get on with their own lives and let me get on with mine.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/02/02/1044122263222.html?oneclick=true|title=Eminently Outrageous|work=[[The Sydney Morning Herald]]|date=3 February 2003|access-date=11 July 2010}}</ref>}}
Childish left the Stuckist movement in 2001.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.tate.org.uk/art/art-terms/s/stuckism|title=Stuckism|website=Tate}}</ref>
