Released to mark the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, Tracey Emin’s True Love Always Wins captures one of the most enduring messages within her practice. Rendered in her distinctive handwritten script, the work reflects Emin’s ongoing exploration of love, vulnerability and emotional truth.

Originally conceived as a public artwork in Rio before being released as an edition, the piece juxtaposes the spectacle of global competition with a universal, deeply personal sentiment. Hopeful, intimate and instantly recognisable, True Love Always Wins has become one of Emin’s most iconic text-based works, resonating strongly with collectors worldwide.
