Description:
“Damien Hirst's cabinets, which tell a story from pill to potion, none of this work apes the outside world in a straightforward way. Nothing has been brought in, photographed, or merely displayed in order to say 'life is like that'. It has all gone through a proper process in order to justify itself.”
