Damien Hirst

To Belong, from Butterfly Etchings

"To Belong" from Damien Hirst's Butterfly Etchings series is a colored etching with aquatint created in 2008 as part of a limited edition of 75 prints published by Other Criteria in London. The work exemplifies Hirst's characteristic use of natural imagery and meticulous printmaking technique, combining the delicate aesthetic of butterfly forms with the classical medium of etching. Presented in full margins and professionally framed at 48 x 51 centimeters, this signed and numbered impression demonstrates the artist's sustained engagement with themes of transformation and natural beauty that define much of his practice.
