Edition of 55
Damien Hirst's Mepartricin is a 2011 woodcut print measuring twelve inches square, part of the artist's renowned pharmaceutical series exploring themes of mortality, medicine, and the human relationship with science. The work employs traditional woodcut techniques to render intricate patterns reminiscent of pill packaging or molecular structures, creating a mesmerizing visual rhythm through repeated geometric forms and bold color contrasts. The intimate square format concentrates the composition's energy, while the handcrafted nature of the woodcut medium introduces subtle variations that distinguish each impression. This work represents an accessible entry point for collectors interested in Hirst's sustained investigation of pharmaceutical imagery, a subject central to his practice since the late 1980s. The 2011 dating positions this piece within a mature period of the artist's career, following his landmark retrospective at Tate Modern. Hirst's prints remain highly sought after in the contemporary art market, offering collectors the opportunity to acquire work by one of the Young British Artists' most influential figures.
