Ellipticine
-
Description
Damien Hirst’s Ellipticine is part of his acclaimed "Pharmaceutical" series, in which he explores the intersections of art, science, and human perception. Rendered in vivid color through silkscreen printing, Ellipticine is named after an anti-cancer drug, echoing Hirst’s fascination with medical aesthetics and their impact on contemporary life.
With its precision and bold palette, the print evokes themes of mortality, healing, and the commodification of health. Like much of Hirst’s work, it balances minimalist visual structure with deeper existential commentary. Ellipticine is a striking example of his iconic use of dots — a motif synonymous with his career.
