For the love of God Damien Hirst is a british arstist. His artwork is always surrounding by death causing a lot of polemics. Its raw materials define it as an artwork of unprecedented scale. The 32 platinum plates are set with 8,601 flawless diamonds. The teeth inserted are real and belong to the original skull. The research revealed that the skull dated from around 1720 - 1810, and was from a 35-year-old man of European/Mediterranean ancestry. The title originates from exclamations Hirst’s mother would make on hearing his plans for new works when he was starting out as an artist. His explanation of death: “You don’t like it, so you disguise it or you decorate it to make it look like something bearable – to such an extent that it becomes something else”. The incorporation of the large central stone was inspired by memories of the comic ‘2000 AD’. Hirst explains: “It kind of just looked like it needed something. A third eye; a connection to Jesus and his dad”.
