HIRST, DAMIEN
1965 Bristol
Title: Ocomeall Faithful.
Date: 2009/2015.
Technique: Plastic pill box, with wire suspension as Christmas tree decoration.
Measurement: 27.5 x 15 x 15cm.
Notation: Monogrammed, inscribed and dated on the left side: DH 803A 12/2009 (printed in the place of the expiry date, difficult to read).
Condition:
Slight stainings and abrasions of the plastic and at the label. Minimal dust deposits in the recesses. Otherwise very good condition.
From an unknown edition.
The adhesive label with details of the fictional medicine "Ocomeall Faithful" shows the lyrics of the Christmas carol "O come all, ye faithful" instead of the ingredients. The oversized pill box was part of the tree decoration for the public Christmas tree at the Conaught Hotel in London from 2015. The artist chose to use pills, syringes, and other medical objects, which he declared to be symbols of hope.
