“In a Celtic mythology – Morrigan is the goddess of death and war, that always appears in a battlefield, using her power for to help one or another side. She can be perceived not only like a stand-alone godship, but some kind of threefold incarnation of goddess that can appear in a figure of gorgeous woman, crow or a wild wolf.”
“The idea of label design was proposed by a client and was also determined by the trade mark’s name – Morrigan. The challenge was to make an artistic interpretation of this idea and to transmit visual character of a brand. In addition we must say that the product itself represents the original Irish whiskey of a triple distillation”
“Based on a legend of a triple image of Morrigan appearance, we designed the original illustration that unites all of three incarnations of a godship, surrounded by a distinctive Celtic pattern. Label printing was performed using such modern technologies as: applying copper gel, silkscreen printing and embossing.”
