Damien Hirst



Went to see this AMAZING piece by Damien Hirst on Saturday and if you have a chance go and see it. It's the most incredible experience. You go into a totally black room where the skull is vaguely lit and you are given a few minutes to stand and admire the 8601 diamonds encrusted in this real skull. Absolutely out of this world.

It's certainly striking. How weird it's on a real skull. Wonder how he came to get a real one ?!!!!

I wonder what the family of the person things that their realatives skull has been made into art !

I'm gobsmacked! What an extraordinary thing.
It gives a whole new slant on the diamonds as best friend theme!
