This series of 14 monumental bronze sculptures chronicles the gestation of a fetus inside a uterus, from conception to birth. It ends with a statue of a 14-metre tall anatomically correct baby boy.

Placed in front of Sidra Medical Centre, which is dedicated to women and children, it is a stunning work of art – and one that will stimulate debate, analysis and reflection at home and abroad for years to come.

Everyone talks about life’s journey, but we have a whole journey before we’re born.

Damien Hirst, Artist
