IX: These Days is Plate 9 from Damien Hirst’s provocative Poisons + Remedies series—a body of work that blurs the line between cure and contamination. As with the full collection, this piece adopts the sterile aesthetic of pharmaceutical design while embedding Hirst’s deeper commentary on mortality, faith, and modern dependency. The clean, clinical formatting contrasts with an underlying emotional tension, inviting viewers to reflect on society’s pursuit of wellness in a world saturated with both promise and peril.
Originally published in 2010 by Gagosian Gallery and Other Criteria, this 13 ¾ x 11 inch print captures Hirst’s conceptual clarity and his ability to transform medical motifs into meditations on existence. A thoughtful addition to any collection of contemporary art or conceptual editions.
