Damien Hirst’s H13-11, Faneel (2024) is a powerful meditation on the sublime force of nature, capturing the drama of a storm-tossed sea in stark monochrome. Towering waves crash forward under a brooding sky, their white crests glowing against the near-black depths of water. The meticulous rendering of light and shadow lends the painting a photographic intensity, while its composition places the viewer at the edge of chaos - caught between awe and fear. The title, Faneel, enigmatic and evocative, deepens the sense of mystery, suggesting something both intimate and monumental. Part of Hirst’s recent exploration of seascapes, the work extends his fascination with beauty, transience, and the uncontrollable energies of the natural world, translating the ocean’s relentless movement into a still image of overwhelming presence.
