About this work

Abacus - The Dream is Dead is a striking exploration of themes related to mortality, time, and the fragile nature of existence. The title, The Dream is Dead, hints at a sense of disillusionment or loss of hope, suggesting a departure from the idealized dreams of a perfect, rational world.This piece is part of Hirst's broader body of work, which often delves into themes of life, death, and the human condition. Through Abacus - The Dream is Dead, Hirst invites viewers to contemplate the fragiity of our existence, and the - at times - pointless pursuit of happiness, and the challenges and uncertainties that come with contemporary living. As with much of Hirst's art, this sculpture sparks discussion and prompts reflection on the intricate web of factors that shape our understanding of health, mortality, and the pursuit of our dreams.
