About this work

This vibrant woodcut presents Hirst's signature spot motif in a dynamic grid formation. Circular forms in brilliant hues of yellow, pink, green, blue, and red are arranged systematically across the white surface, creating a rhythmic visual field that recalls both pharmaceutical color coding and minimalist abstraction. The woodcut medium lends a tactile quality to the composition, with each spot bearing the characteristic grain and impression marks of the hand-carved printing process. The bold palette and geometric precision create an immediate visual impact while inviting closer inspection of the subtle variations within each repeated element. Part of Hirst's celebrated Pharmaceutical series, this work exemplifies his exploration of medicine, science, and seriality that has defined contemporary art discourse for decades. The woodcut technique adds historical gravitas and collectible appeal to his conceptual framework, connecting traditional printmaking to contemporary concerns. As a work on paper from an internationally renowned artist, it offers accessibility to collectors seeking an entry point into Hirst's practice.
