Lucy Hill created six glazed paintings for the pier walls at Blacksod Pier entitled Scáile. These were then translated into images in clay. The original oil paintings are on permanent display at the Belmullet Civic Centre. These unique artworks enjoy the durability of ceramic and the delicacy and tactility of oil painting.

On two ceramic bas-relief panels Hill uses a series of motifs and recognisable elements. The colours, forms and textures of the imagery available (nets, ropes, boats, lobster pots) are immensely exciting both visually and lyrically. Each of the two ceramic panels display a different focus, the first using all of the imagery of the pier and the second using the images of the important local landscape, its flora and fauna from both sea and land.

The sea/ pier panel set on the angled plinth wall has a multitude of images and colours from the boats, ropes, steps, crane, fish- boxes, fishermen, lobsterpots and lighthouse. The land panel is situated on the far wall adjacent to the curved steps. It shows elements specific to Blacksod particularly the important relationship with the land, its ecological importance in terms of bird life, its sands, history and people all set over a map of the peninsula. The textures achievable in the clay make the wall panels two dimensional sculptures. The responsiveness and tactile malleability of clay is used to full capacity by drawing into it, rolling it, pressing textures into it and painting with it.

By using both facing walls the images are very striking for their introduction of colour to the pier. The panels are site specific in the truest sense in that all of the images used are drawn from the site. They sit well with the workings of the pier as they afford maximum visual impact in terms of colour, texture without impeding in any way the usual movements of this busy pier.  

The imagery is dynamic, using all of the colour and visual excitement of the area. The bas-relief panels contains elements particular to Blacksod and encapsulate the beauty and energy of the area as well as reference to its rich historical past  and its vital importance and relevance to modern Ireland.
