25.01.2022 Come and see 'Landmarks' by Carmel Marsden. Landmarks are about change and the link between the land and the river. Line, pattern and movement are important as we can share an interest and focus on the connections we all have to our natural world. #sculpturebytheriver2020

25.01.2022 Enjoy our family-friendly interactive sculpture hunt and discover hidden gems of Northshore as you create your very own piece of art and contribute to our community sculpture. #sculpturebytheriver2020

25.01.2022 Come and see 'Layers of Time' by Susan Margaret. Recording the rhythm of time. Layers of time shadowed by the sun. My activity reflects respect for the ceremony of cave painting the seasonal ritual of returning to place and layering colour. #sculpturebytheriver2020

24.01.2022 Come and see 'Fringedweller' by Antone Bruinsma. Representing the interface of human habitat in a transient riverfront, the crab symbolises life on the rivers edge. The hand holds a fish, a reminder of humanity’s vital connection with river life. #sculpturebytheriver2020

22.01.2022 The Brisbane institution, Eat Street Northshore, is BACK ! Northshore Brisbane and the team at Eat Street are thrilled to confirm doors (.....and plates) will open back up today at 4pm! #discovernorthshore #eatstreet

21.01.2022 Come and see 'Boys' by Phillip Perides. ‘Boys’ reflects the playful activities of children. Their creativity goes unseen by those around them. This sculpture depicts two boys playing around the water, expressing youth and energy. #sculpturebytheriver2020

20.01.2022 Come and see 'A Ship Landed' by Hermann Schraut The background of this ship is not clear...maybe a connection to early Australian Migration?#sculpturebytheriver2020

19.01.2022 It's great to see the opening of Kingsford Smith Drive, giving us a clear ride by car and bike in and out of the city. For more information see Brisbane City Councils update - https://bit.ly/3kUkGrl Image courtesy of http://ksdupgrade.com.au/

19.01.2022 Come and see 'The Night Hunter' by Mela Cooke. In the past owls were used to hunt small animals for food, and these small prey were hidden in the marshy areas along the river. #sculpturebytheriver2020

17.01.2022 Come and see 'Mr Percival' by Peter Steller and admire the grandeur of pelicans. These characteristics of the pelican are portrayed in a non-traditional, abstract way to depict this beautiful, yet ungainly, loveable bird. #sculpturebytheriver2020

13.01.2022 A big congratulations to our precinct partner @alcyonehotel for being awarded Trip Advisor's #1 hotel in Brisbane!

12.01.2022 Come and see 'Mangrove Spirit' by Antone Bruinsma. This protective, cheeky mythological creature with webbed feet, long neck, crocodilian spine and tail hinting at ancient origins ensures the rivers health. It symbolically offers a fish to humanity. #sculpturebytheriver2020

09.01.2022 Come and see 'Scoot' by Mela Cooke. The surrounds of the river have always been a popular area for families to congregate and for children to play. #sculpturebytheriver2020

05.01.2022 Come and see 'Wings of Dreams' by Peter Steller. The sculpture is an expression of our desire for total freedom to attain personal achievements. Every achievement starts with the freedom to dream! #sculpturebytheriver2020 #discovernorthshore

05.01.2022 Come and see 'A Northshore Encounter' by Leeanne Elms. Leeanne wanted to observe the interesting possibility that the Brisbane River cod may have swum around this very piling when it was first installed. Now weathered and textured it alludes to both its past and present form. #sculpturebytheriver2020

03.01.2022 Come and see 'Northshore Aphrodite' by Puggy Booth. This classical Greek sculpture signifying rebirth inspired the romantic idea that the Northshore redevelopment is in fact a rebirth of an old industrial site into a modern inner city living environment. #sculpturebytheriver2020 #discovernorthshore

02.01.2022 Come and see 'Superegg' by Jaco Roeloffs. Superegg represents the image of the rapid multiplying of single use coffee capsules, which symbolises human convenience and its impact on our natural environment. Can you guess how many pods have been used to create this piece? #sculpturebytheriver2020

01.01.2022 We are so excited to share that our friends at Eat Street Northshore are back open for business starting Friday 4 December! What an incredible way to kick off the festive season! #eatstreet #discovernorthshore
