Damien Hirst

Round, from In a Spin, The Action of the World on Things, Vol. 1

A mesmerizing composition of concentric circles radiates outward in a hypnotic pattern of rich, layered colors, rendered through Hirst's masterful combination of etching, sugar-lift, and aquatint techniques. The work evokes the spinning spot paintings for which Hirst is celebrated, here translated into the intimacy of the printmaking medium on fine Hahnemühle etching paper. Part of the ambitious *In a Spin* series, the piece reflects Hirst's ongoing fascination with repetition, motion, and the relentless forces that act upon the physical world.
