About this work

Damien Hirst's Ethisterone is a woodcut from 2011 that belongs to the artist's pharmaceutical series exploring the visual language of medical illustration and drug packaging. Measuring five inches square, this intimate print demonstrates Hirst's masterful command of the woodcut medium, translating his signature dot motif into precise carved lines and bold color blocks. The composition features the geometric precision characteristic of pharmaceutical design, rendered with the organic irregularities inherent to traditional printmaking techniques. This work represents an accessible entry point for collectors interested in Hirst's conceptual exploration of mortality, science, and consumer culture. The pharmaceutical series has become highly sought after among contemporary print collectors, offering the intellectual rigor of Hirst's larger installations in an intimate format. As part of his systematic examination of medicine's visual culture, Ethisterone demonstrates the thematic consistency that has established Hirst as one of the most influential artists of his generation.
