A powerful two-colour lithograph depicting two figures embracing on a bed, alone in a room, created as part of her I Need Tomorrow series created with Counter Studios, Margate. The bed has long been one of Emin’s most recognisable motifs, serving as a deeply personal space that symbolises intimacy, vulnerability and reflection. The series was created to coincide with the opening of Emin’s exhibition A Second Life at Tate Modern, which pays homage to her past creations, including her iconic My Bed, which was shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 1999.
 
Tracey Emin (born 1963) is best known for her intimate, authentic, autobiographical style exploring all elements of life. Emin puts herself into her artwork and gives a glimpse into how she views herself and her world, and her experiences and emotions - often difficult or expressive topics that viewers can relate to. Her work ranges from neon to drawing, painting, printmaking, sewing, photography and sculpture and has been exhibited extensively internationally. Tracey has been widely recognised for her work including being nominated for the Turner Prize, appointed a Royal Academician and a Professor of Drawing at the RA, appointed CBE and she represented Great Britain at the Venice Biennale in 2007.
