Tracey Emin
Untitled drawing (My Bed), 2018
Original Black Ink on Paper drawing
Signed in black marker lower front directly under the image
Frame included
Original, unique hand signed drawing of a woman on her bed by beloved British artist Tracey Emin - who catapulted to international superstardom in 1999 with the installation at the Turner Prize exhibition at Tate Britain, of her iconic 1998 "My Bed" - which had been on loan to the Tate for a decade by Charles Saatchi. Consisting of Emin’s bed, dirty underwear, cigarette butts, empty vodka bottles, and boxes of contraceptive pills, crumpled tissues, period-stained clothing, a pregnancy test, lubricant, and condoms surrounded her bed. The artwork was created after the artist spent four days in it recovering from a breakup. The present drawing depicting a woman in her bed, created by Tracey Emin in 2018 at the Royal Academy, is a nod to her career-making confessional piece done exactly two decades earlier. If there's one iconic piece that most represents Tracey Emin's oeuvre - this is it. A true and absolutely unique collectible. You might not find the likes of this for a while.
