Damien Hirst Signed Patience Limited Edition Print 2019
This visually stunning limited-edition artwork by Damien Hirst comes from his Kaleidoscope series. Hirst has signed the piece to the lower front right corner in white. The artist began using butterflies in his work as early as 1989. Describing the image of the butterfly as a ‘universal trigger’, he has explained: ‘Everyone’s frightened of glass, everyone’s frightened of sharks, everyone loves butterflies.’ Hirst started using butterflies in this way in 2001 after he found a Victorian tea tray decorated with intricate patterns of butterfly wings. There are no real butterflies in this work.
The work is about the spiritual symbolism of the butterfly, which was used by the Greeks to depict Psyche, the soul, and in Christian imagery to signify the Resurrection. The perfect symmetry plays with light, colour and beauty as presented in Gothic stained-glass windows and the circular patterns of Buddhist mandalas.
