'The Butterfly Man in Tunis' - A signed, limited edition silkscreen print with glazes by Sir Peter Blake, from his series 'Homage to Damien Hirst'. Printed at Coriander Studios, published by CCA Galleries.

The five silkscreen prints in 'Homage to Damien Hirst' are a continuation of Blake’s Butterfly Man motif: a character who recurs in several of his collage series ('Venice Suite', 'World Tour', 'Paris Quartet') as well as a tribute to his friend and inspiration Damien Hirst,

"Damien Hirst has used butterflies a lot in his work, and it was pointed out that ‘the butterfly man’ owes more than a little to his work, so I was happy to dedicate him in homage to Damien. I am an enormous admirer of Damien’s work." - Peter Blake.

In the series Blake once again makes use of retro postcard images as backdrops to his collage of the butterfly man, dozens of butterflies and an assortment of eclectic characters from the miscellaneous print paraphernalia that he has hoarded over the years. The butterfly man’s travels continue on the North Africa, where he releases his multitude of larger than life butterflies in the souk at Tunis.
