All of the artworks from Damien Hirst’s latest series The Secrets are on display at HENI Gallery from 25 January until on 5 February 2024.
The Secrets editions are based on the paintings from Hirst’s latest series, The Secret Gardens Paintings (2023). Rendered in a rich and diverse palette, these works capture lush landscapes, populated by seemingly endless species of flowers. They mark a natural evolution in Hirst’s own practice, and his long engagement with the tension between realism and abstraction. The interrelation between humanity and the environment is an important theme: Hirst said that he wants the works “to feel like the hope and futility we get when we try to control nature.”
The Secret Gardens Paintings were first unveiled at Frieze London in 2023 to mark the 20th anniversary of the fair. A selection of the paintings will go on view at Château La Coste in March 2024 for a major exhibition of Hirst’s sculptures and paintings, titled ‘The Light That Shines’.
