For the Derry 2021 street art festival – rebranded as Roots Street Art – seven pieces were scheduled, one for each of Derry’s gates and celebrating Irish roots around the globe (Derry Journal) but the on-going pandemic made things difficult. Among the artists who did take part were Inkie (Mighty Oaks From Little Acorns Grow), Sufek (Eat Like A Bird), Mr Cenz (Femelle Fatale), the Glöbel Bros (Conzo Throb and Ciaran Glöbel, who painted The Donegal Bus), and Sean Atmos (ig) who painted the piece above. Atmos is from Dublin but has roots in Dungiven.
