Edition of 55

Damien Hirst's Ala-Met is a 2011 woodcut that exemplifies the artist's ongoing fascination with pharmaceutical aesthetics and the visual language of medicine. Measuring 31 5/8 x 25 inches, this print employs the traditional woodcut technique to create a striking composition centered on pill imagery. The work's bold graphic qualities and precise execution demonstrate Hirst's ability to transform clinical subject matter into arresting visual form, while the woodcut medium lends a distinctive texture and handcrafted quality to the pharmaceutical motif. This work represents an accessible entry point into Hirst's celebrated oeuvre for collectors drawn to his iconic exploration of mortality, desire, and contemporary culture. As part of his pharmaceutical series, Ala-Met offers the conceptual depth associated with Hirst's practice in a more intimate scale than his large installations. The print format makes this an appealing addition for both established collectors and those beginning to engage with Hirst's influential body of work.
