At the centre of these artworks are grids of emoji-like pregnant women whose forms have been constructed from paint spots of various shapes, sizes and colours taken directly from artworks within The Currency series. The collection references some of the most iconic imagery from Hirst’s monumental career. While the structure and basic forms are repeated across the series, each piece is individualised and unique by colour or unique combination of attributes. 
 
Damien Hirst (born 1965) rose to prominence in the late 1980s and early 1990s with his striking works of art. He was a key member of the Young British Artists, won the Turner Prize in 1995 and challenges perceptions and the limits of art. Hirst has also challenged the art market; in 2008 he held an auction with Sotheby’s and sold over 200 pieces of his work direct to the public by bypassing galleries, earning £111 million. He explores themes of life, death and religion, and has created thought provoking artworks including various animals in formaldehyde and For The Love Of God, a diamond encrusted human skull with 8,601 diamonds.
