In 2017, Jackie spent six months gathering research by walking the land and speaking to the knowledgeable locals of Ballyhaise. This locality is where she grew up and still lives today and so it was important to explore deep into its roots. The Exhibition itself launched in the beautiful Agricultural College in Ballyhaise in August 2017 as part of heritage week and creative Ireland. This was a huge success and it was wonderfully received by locals. Each print in the Scéalta Dàr dTalún exhibition tells a story of Ballyhaise land and the artwork is Jackie’s artistic interpretation of these stories, myths, and facts.
“As I walk through the Ballyhaise landscape regularly, I look, I listen, I wait. I know there are messages to be discovered from deep within the soil. I know we can’t know for sure what happened here before, my hope is to create a passageway for the viewer into the curiosities of the river Annalee, the one tree, the others trees, the harvests, the battles, along with the creatures and characters that might have previously walked this land.”
The following meaning comes printed as part of the product:
In Irish Folklore the raven is generally seen as an omen of death. it is said when a person dies ‘The Raven has his eyes’.
The last Newburgh owner of Ballyhaise Estate was William Perrot Newburgh who did not marry, he left his estate on death in 1783 not to his cousin Brockhill
Newburgh, but to William Burroughs who had married his sister. This marriage reunited the parts of the estate which was originally divided in 1656. The will infuriated Brockhill Newburgh who was Secretary of the Linen Bord and High Sheriff for Cavan in 1792, he contested the will. There were several verdicts for both sides in Courts of Exchequer to Chancery and from there to the House of Lords where it was confirmed to the then proprietor Brockhill Newburgh. Arthur Robert Newburgh, son of Brockhill then inherited the estate in 1791. He had a major dispute with his solicitor, James Corry of Linenhall Street, Dublin over the expanses for the lawsuit. A dual was fought between them on the lawn in the front of the house on May 9th, 1800. Newburgh was killed in the dual. The estate was sold 24th May 1811 to William Humphrys, a Dublin Merchant residing in Rutland Street, Dublin.
