Thiess Group Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) Artwork

We believe reconciliation is not the responsibility of one person or one company – it is a shared journey built on respect, relationships and truth-telling. To Thiess, reconciliation is about long-term partnerships, listening and learning, as well as embedding culturally respectful practices into our organisation.

As we continue our reconciliation journey, our artwork tells the story and shares our reconciliation vision. It is a visual reminder and everyday call to action. It's our commitment to understanding the past, the rich and strong connection that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the land and the important role this plays in not only our business but in all our lives and decisions.

Thiess was honoured to work with Brisbane-based Indigenous creative agency Gilimbaa and Rachael Sarra (Goreng Goreng) to develop our RAP artwork. As a contemporary Aboriginal artist from Goreng Goreng Country, Rachael Sarra uses art as a powerful tool in storytelling to educate and share Aboriginal culture and its evolution. Rachael's work often challenges and explores the themes of society's perception of what Aboriginal art and identity is.
