This piece was commissioned by Dublin Pride for the launch of the Pride Hub. It references the myth of Tailtiu, a goddess who worked herself to death clearing the plains of Ireland for agriculture, and uses her as an allegory for activists who worked tirelessly but died before their causes had advanced. The artistic style is varied across the piece to suggest multiple voices, as in the mythic tradition.

Tailtiu is represented by Thom McGinty, the Diceman, a gay rights activist and performance artist who died from AIDS related illness in 1994, just one year after decriminalisation and 21 years before marriage equality. His legacy of activisim has largely been erased, and he is now celebrated more as a clown.

The good gods are, in the tradition of patron insertion, the Dublin Pride executive, the artist and some friends who helped with the development of the project. The cruel gods are those who have opposed advances in queer rights.

The crops that grow from the furrows Tailtiu has ploughed represent Irish liberation, feminism, black rights and queer rights. The smallest figures are the furthest in the past and they get taller as they move forward representing the advances in these movements.
