A soulful four-colour lithograph created to celebrate Team GB’s participation in the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The print depicts Rio’s iconic statue, Christ the Redeemer, atop its snaking mountain road, which Emin cleverly uses to symbolise the winding journey to achieve true love. The edition encapsulates the optimism and positive energy of athletes and acts as an inspirational statement of hope and faith for all.
 
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.
