Take an up-close look at the station art being installed at Cross River Rail’s Boggo Road station, which is #InDelivery by our CPB Contractors team.😍 This is 'Ataga Ulumu' (which means red clay/road) by Teho Ropeyarn. The piece highlights the similarities between the Brisbane River, which runs close to Boggo Road station, and the Jardine River from Teho’s Country in Cape York. The design speaks directly to the significance of water, land, and sky in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage. 🧡🧡 Want to hear more about what's happening across CPB Contractors?
