Damien Hirst — Domine, ne in furore
Damien Hirst

Domine, ne in furore

A dazzling and meticulously arranged butterfly composition by Damien Hirst, rendered in vibrant screenprinted colours that radiate with kaleidoscopic symmetry. The surface shimmers with diamond dust, adding an ethereal luminosity that elevates the work between the sacred and the decorative. The Latin title, meaning "Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger," imbues the piece with a spiritual gravitas that contrasts with its seductive, jewel-like beauty.

Screenprint in colours with diamond dust, on wove paper, with full margins,
