The Empresses

The striking Empresses prints are made of beautiful images of red butterfly wings, which are intricately arranged with a filigree of red glitter to produce visually intoxicating kaleidoscope-like effects.

They are named after five exceptionally influential female rulers: Wu Zetian, Nūr Jahān, Theodora, Suiko and Taytu Betul.

Their characters and stories are enhanced by the series' dominant red tone, which deals with themes of life, war, power, anger, love, joy and happiness.

Hirst's art poses questions about immortality and the concept of life and death.

Hirst gained worldwide fame for his artworks with animals preserved in formaldehyde in an aquarium, such as the shark installation (1991) “The Physical Impossibility Of Death In The Mind Of Someone Living”. The shark looks lifelike because it's just a real shark that seems to float in water.

Damien Hirst's work is an extreme and outrageous form of art in this century. Decadent to classical beauty, from the interior to the conceptual. Damien Hirst's work is always a celebration of life and harks back to the urgency of our time: death, decay and disease. This often goes hand in hand with the austere formality of the glass display case or the white cube.

Metaphors of medicine and medical knowledge, media propaganda and the alienation of nature are reflected in the form and content of his work. With influences from Francis Bacon to English punk to the pop art of the sixties. The media associates his work with death, but he also makes work related to love and with a poetic approach.

Despite the fact that his installations are sold for millions, Hirst makes editions that you can view at AbrahamArt or request a trial placement at your home. The artworks of Damien Hirst are always controversial and still popular.
