Terrence Higgins Trust - 2022, Timed Auction

'Amour' is an oil painting by London-based artist Adam Baker. His work relates to his own experiences and memories as a gay man, and further explores intimacy and interpersonal relationships within the LGBTIQ community.

The figures in the painting, a gay couple, are both contemporary dancers. Clinging to each other, they form a protective huddle, embodying the need for protection and unity. The merging of the figures creates geometric shapes, which transform the two figures into a singular entity.
