Counter Editions is pleased to announce the launch of a new series of six prints by Tracey Emin.
Each print is a hand-pulled lithograph, created by the artist at Counter Studio in Margate. The works retain the immediacy of Emin’s mark-making, closely aligned with her drawing practice, with each image carrying a direct sense of her hand and the subtle tonal variation and depth unique to the lithographic process. The series coincides with Emin’s exhibition A Second Life at Tate Modern, widely recognised as a major moment in her career.
Always at the centre of her own world, Tracey Emin uses all aspects of her life in her art, turning intimate autobiography into broader statements about love, death, sex, freedom and everyday life. Her work has taken the form of diaristic drawings, paintings, films, sculptures and written stories, all of which convey the same combination of frustration, pain, compassion and wit. Drawing and printmaking have remained key mediums for Emin, and over the last ten years she has produced a steady output of monotype prints direct from her drawings.
The prints will be presented for the first time at the London Original Print Fair at Somerset House, 14 – 17 May 2026.
Tracey Emin was born in 1963 in London. She shares her time between Margate, London and the South of France.
In 2024, Emin was made a dame for her services to British Art. The year before, Emin opened TKE Studios in Margate which offers artist studios and a residency programme. In 2022, Emin was awarded with the title of Honorary Freewoman of Margate in recognition of her work and her investment into the culture of the town. In 2012, Emin was made Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire for her contributions to the visual arts, and in 2011, she was appointed Professor of Drawing at the Royal Academy of Arts, London. Emin represented Great Britain at the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007 and was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1999.
