About this work
Damien Hirst's Manganese Chloride from 2011 is an intimate woodcut print measuring just five inches square. Part of Hirst's exploration of pharmaceutical and chemical imagery, this work translates his signature spot painting motif into the traditional medium of woodcut. The compact format intensifies the visual impact of Hirst's characteristic arrangement of circular forms, executed with the distinctive texture and grain that woodcut technique imparts. The print demonstrates Hirst's ability to adapt his conceptual concerns about mortality, science, and systems of classification across different artistic media. This piece represents an accessible entry point for collectors interested in Hirst's work, offering the conceptual depth of his larger installations in a more intimate scale. The 2011 date places it within a significant period of Hirst's printmaking practice, when he systematically explored his spot paintings through various print techniques. The small dimensions make it particularly suitable for focused collections or smaller display spaces while maintaining the visual punch of Hirst's broader artistic vision.
