Terrence Higgins Trust - 2023, Live Auction

We are thrilled to present a unique opportunity at this year’s Auction. Tracey Emin has kindly donated one of her Artist’s proofs of the neon More of You from her personal archive. Emin began working with neon in the early 1990s, using the industrial medium to share her passing thoughts and her deepest desires. With her handwriting as the font, the artist’s neon sculptures feature phrases that are deeply personal, but also universally relatable. 

The renowned art critic Jonathan Jones has said: ‘Emin’s neons cast light on the very way she thinks about drawing. She speaks of it in terms of light. She turns words into images, and language into a shining spectacle.’
