Edition of 55
Gold Tears, Utopia exemplifies Damien Hirst's exploration of pharmaceutical imagery through the refined medium of foil blocking. Created in 2012, this substantial work measures 86 by 71 inches and features the artist's characteristic pill motifs rendered in shimmering metallic surfaces. The foil block technique produces a distinctive tactile quality and luminous finish, transforming mundane pharmaceutical forms into objects of visual seduction. The composition balances repetition and variation, creating an almost hypnotic pattern that speaks to themes of desire, consumption, and the utopian promises of medical science. This signed work represents an important period in Hirst's practice when he was refining his visual language around medicine and mortality. As one of the most influential contemporary artists globally, Hirst's works are held in major museums worldwide and continue to command strong collector interest. The substantial scale and pristine execution make this piece particularly suitable for significant private or corporate collections. Available for purchase — enquire for price and availability.
