About this work

Damien Hirst's Elaidoyl Chloride from 2011 demonstrates the artist's characteristic exploration of pharmaceutical aesthetics through the traditional medium of woodcut. This intimate twelve-inch square print features Hirst's iconic spot painting motif, translating his signature geometric compositions into the relief printing process. The woodcut technique lends a distinctive tactile quality to the work, with each circular form bearing the subtle irregularities inherent to hand-carved blocks, creating a compelling dialogue between mechanical precision and handmade craftsmanship. This work represents an accessible entry point for collectors interested in Hirst's pharmaceutical series, which has become among the most recognizable bodies of contemporary art. The compact dimensions make it ideal for focused collections or intimate viewing spaces, while the 2011 date places it firmly within Hirst's mature period of sustained international acclaim.
