Damien Hirst

Pharmacy; Home Sweet Home; and Opium

These three works by Damien Hirst draw from his iconic investigations into medicine, domesticity, and addiction, presenting familiar objects and imagery with clinical precision and vibrant color. *Pharmacy*, *Home Sweet Home*, and *Opium* employ distinct printing techniques—offset lithography, screenprint, and Lambda print—each lending a unique surface quality that ranges from the sleek and commercial to the luminously photographic. Together, the works reflect Hirst's enduring preoccupation with desire, consumption, and the fine line between healing and harm.
