Damien Hirst

Personally, I'm not a Damien Hirst fan, but I do like the 'In a spin' series that he's done. It's currently on exhibition in the uni, on the floor below where I'm sitting right now actually, and I like it. Even if the writing on them does look like it's been done by a five year old.

It's a very simple technique of just dropping ink and paint onto a piece of paper that's sitting on a turning table, or something. Like one of those pottery wheels.

Anyway, it fits in with my project because of the fact that the images were created by not touching the paper.

And they're aesthetically pleasing.
