“Everyone talks about our life’s journey, but we have a whole journey before you’re born”
(Damien Hirst)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artist\nexperienced a real fascination\nwith childbirth after the birth of his own children. The Miraculous Journey (2005 to 2013)<\/em><\/strong> is a series of 14 bronze sculptures. They are\nsituated outside the Sidra Medical and Research Center in Doha<\/a>, Qatar<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work was originally unveiled in\n2013, but was covered up until November 2018. At\nits 2013 unveiling each sculpture was covered with a balloon that slowly opened\nto reveal each piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sculptures vary from 5 to 11 meters in height and collectively weigh 216 tonnes. We find very inspiring this artwork. A. ode to the life.
