The ‘Till Death Do Us Part' Skull in vibrant red is a remarkable work by renowned contemporary artist Damien Hirst. Part of his 2012 skull series, this piece is one of only 50 editions, each signed and numbered by Hirst in pencil on the lower corners.
The ‘Till Death Do Us Part' embodies one of Hirst’s most iconic motifs. The human skull serves as a symbol of life’s fragility, the inevitability of death, and the reminder to live in the present moment. Hirst once said, “To live in a society where you're trying not to look at [death] is stupid because looking at death throes us back into life with more vigor and energy.” This intricate silkscreen print, enhanced with foil block and glaze, certainly provides a bold energy, as found throughout Hirst's signature pop-art style.
