Damien Hirst: Superstition Plate Set
Produced by Other Criteria in London, this set of twelve plates features reproductions of paintings from Damien Hirst’s Superstition (2006) series, whose classical shapes and compositions take their inspiration from stained-glass church windows.
The intricate paintings reference the spiritual symbolism of the butterfly, used by the ancient Greeks to depict Psyche, the soul, and in Christian imagery to signify the Resurrection. The butterfly is one of Hirst’s most enduring motifs, recurring in his work since the late 1980s.
