Her career has spanned over three decades with pieces tackling sex, pain and the female experience in a deliberately confessional way.

But Emin’s life hasn’t always been filled with awards and royal recognition.
And in the last few years, she has survived an aggressive cancer, opened an art school and produced paintings and sculptures with renewed intensity.

25 years after her famous installation, My Bed, was nominated for a Turner prize, the artist sat down with BBC Woman to talk about the person behind the artwork and the legacy she hopes to leave behind.
