So as you guys know, I went to London last week to see the
New Designers 2012 exhibition, but I also managed to squeeze in a visit to the
Tate Modern because I wanted to see the
Damien Hirst exhibition. And of course, I got a copy of the Damien Hirst book... Well it would have been rude not to! Here's some images from the book because the exhibition was a 'no photography' basis.

In and Out of Love
(White Paintings and Live Butterflies) 1991 |
There was a whole room filled with live butterflies flying around. At first they looked really dull and ugly, with their wings closed and then I seen one flutter off the wall and there was the most stunning flash of blue and green!

Beautiful, cataclysmic pink minty shifting horizon exploding star with ghostly presence, wide, broad, painting 2004
This was one of my favourite paintings. The mix of the sickly pink and minty colour just satisfies me so much! |

 |
| Doorways of the Kingdom of Heaven 2007 |

| Sympathy in White Major - Absolution II 2006 |

Sorry for the image overload.... Just really wanted to share it with you guys!
Cigarettes, butterflies, pills, sharks, cows, sheep, honey and a fair few other eccentric and (seemingly) random objects. If you haven't visited the exhibition, I highly recommend you go!! All very interesting concept pieces split into 14 rooms.
