Beautiful Rotating Earth Justice Spin Painting
Summary
Beautiful Rotating Earth Justice Spin Painting (2025) is a giclée print on paper, 103 x 103 cm framed, from HENI Editions in an edition of 250. Catalogued TT3-3, it is the third image in the Hirst–Fairey collaborative Spin series, its title pointing to themes of rotation, the earth, and justice within a centrifugal composition.
Why It Matters
The titular reference to earth and justice gives this print a thematic weight that sets it apart from the purely decorative entries in the set. That conceptual layer aligns with Fairey's activist sensibility, making TT3-3 a natural focal point for collectors drawn to socially inflected imagery within the collaboration.
Collector Perspective
With 250 examples on paper, this print carries the same accessible scale as its series-mates. Collectors often single it out for its evocative title and message-driven framing. Within the complete TT3 group it occupies the third position, and set-completionists factor its availability into decisions about acquiring the full quartet.
Historical Context
Hirst's Spin process embraces chance and rotation, while Fairey built his reputation on politically charged graphic art. This 2025 collaboration merges those instincts, applying a justice theme to the spin format. It belongs to HENI's editioned output extending Hirst's methods into co-authored, message-forward print projects.

About the Artist
Damien Hirst (born 1965, Bristol) is a British artist and the most prominent figure of the Young British Artists (YBAs). Rising to fame in the late 1980s and 1990s, he built a practice around mortality, science, religion, and beauty — from formaldehyde-preserved animals to his Spot, Spin, and Butterfly (Kaleidoscope) series. Hirst is also one of the most prolific printmakers in contemporary art, releasing extensive signed editions through his own science-led studio and, more recently, the HENI imprint. His work has commanded record prices and defined the market for blue-chip contemporary editions.
Collecting Damien Hirst at Gauntlet Gallery
Which Damien Hirst prints should I collect?
Signed, numbered editions from his signature series — Spots, Butterflies/Kaleidoscope, Spins, Cherry Blossoms, and skull works — are the collectible core. Look for strong condition and the artist's pencil signature. Gauntlet Gallery prioritizes complete, well-documented impressions.
How is a Hirst print authenticated?
We sell Hirst works with documented provenance and the edition's signature and numbering; many carry HENI or studio documentation. Each piece is photographed exactly as it ships, including signature and edition details.
What drives value?
Series and image (iconic Spots and Butterflies lead), edition size, format and scale, condition, and provenance all drive value. Hand-signed, low-numbered, and diamond-dust or foilblock works command premiums.
