Meaning & Analysis

The print is part of Hirst’s Kaleidoscope series, an ambitious project started by the artist in 2001 which was inspired by the intricate pattern of butterfly wings Hirst saw on an old Victorian tea tray. Hirst has had a longstanding fascination with butterflies and the artist frequently incorporates the insect into his artworks. Arguably the most notable use of butterflies was in 1991, when Hirst created a live installation in which butterflies emerged from pupae attached to white painted canvases kept in a humid exhibition room.

Part of the artist’s fascination with butterflies lies in the way they can be used to explore questions of life and death. For Hirst, butterflies embody the fragility of life because they retain an iridescent beauty even in death. Butterflies are also imbued with a significant spiritual symbolism as they were used by the Greeks to depict the Psyche and soul and found in Christian imagery to signify the resurrection.

  • Damien Hirst, born in Bristol in 1965, is often hailed the enfant terrible of the contemporary art world. His provocative works challenge conventions and his conceptual brilliance spans installations, paintings, and sculptures, often exploring themes of mortality and the human experience. As a leading figure of the Young British Artists (YBA) movement in the late '80s, Hirst's work has dominated the British art scene for decades and has become renowned for being laced with controversy, thus shaping the dialogue of modern art.
