(A Level) The White Stag; Looking Into the Roman Ruins

A-Level Art and Design Component 2: Externally Set Task

For this unit, we select one of seven different questions to base our project on. The question I selected was called 'Maps', as a synonym of maps is 'Legend'.
Due to this, I based my project off of the Celtic legend of the White Stag. I investigated the White Stag and its role as a Celtic deity, as well as ways in which I could show the White Stag interacting with the environment around me in a way that makes it more personal to me.

In this piece, the White Stag is walking through the Verulamium Roman ruins. I wanted to convey that although the Romans inevitably overran the Celts and their way of life, the spirit of the White Stag lived on, even further than the Romans.
