True Love Always Wins was created to celebrate Team GB's participation in the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Tracey's lithograph features Rio's iconic statue Christ The Redeemer. The snaking mountain road symbolises the winding journey to achieve true love, represented by Christ's outstretched arms at the summit. The work carries particular poignancy given Tracey's recent marriage to a rock: true love may not be what one expects, but it will always prevail. True Love Always Wins encapsulates the optimism and positive energy that drives Team GB athletes and their supporters, and acts as an inspirational statement of hope and faith for all.
