This piece was commissioned for the opening of an Iron age hill fort in the New Forest. I worked with SPUD, a youth group, to research the local area and Celtic beliefs. The piece we designed uses Cerenunos , the horned god, and the Green man as inspiration. I cast antlers from the New forest in bronze for the piece. The project was a fantastic chance to work with young people and allow their ideas to influence the piece.
