A new artwork has been unveiled Doha, Qatar. The new artwork was created the British artist Damien Hirst. He is famous his art installations that include dead sharks and cows clear plastic boxes. His new modern-art work is called The Miraculous Journey. It consists 14 giant bronze sculptures that show the beginning human life conception to birth. The first exhibit shows a human sperm entering an egg. The sculptures progress the egg producing an embryo, which then turns into a fetus a giant womb. The final sculpture is of a newborn baby. The very detailed exhibits are 5 and 14 meters high. They have been installed in front of a women's healthcare center in Qatar.

Not everyone is happy the sculptures. They are very controversial Qatar. Layla Ibrahim, a Qatari art specialist, said: "They are not meant to be decorative, they are meant to create debates. We are not expecting everyone to like them [or] understand them." She added: "We believe it reflects the hospital's mission taking care of the healthcare women and babies." Mr Hirst said: "Culturally, it's the first naked sculpture the Middle East. It's very brave." He added: "The journey a baby goes before birth is bigger than anything it will experience its human life. I hope the sculpture will instill the viewer a sense awe and wonder this extraordinary human process."
