Civilisation forms part of Damien Hirst’s 2024 series of the same name, continuing the artist’s exploration of beauty, nature, life and mortality through his instantly recognisable visual language.
The work reflects Hirst’s longstanding fascination with the natural world and the tension between beauty and impermanence that has remained central to his practice. Rich detail and colour give the composition an immediate visual presence, while the subject connects to the broader themes of transformation, existence and our relationship with nature found throughout Hirst’s work.
The title Civilisation introduces a further tension between the natural and human worlds, inviting reflection on ideas of progress, preservation and the structures created by society.
Produced as a Giclée print on Cotton Smooth Rag, Civilisation was released in 2024 as H17-4 in an edition of 507.
Each work is individually hand-signed and numbered by Damien Hirst on the front.
Presented framed, measuring 143 × 112 cm.
