Beautiful You Drive Me Crazy, 2014

This piece is part of Hirst’s larger body of Spin works, in which he spins the canvas – in this case, a chair designed by Jasper Morrison – while applying paint, creating dynamic vortexes of color. Each chair is one of a kind, with vivid hues and splattered paint reflecting key formal elements seen throughout the artist’s wider practice. Additionally, the choice to use a pre-existing, industrially produced chair aligns with Hirst’s ongoing exploration of found objects in his work.
