Kep Bidi (Water Pathways)

Emily Rose

Title: Kep Bidi (Water Pathways)

Artist/s: Emily Rose

Year: 2025

Category: Mural

Site: Bull Creek Station

Location Details: Bin store structure, north-east of bus interchange, next to Leach Highway.

Artist/s Statement:

Kep Bidi (Water Pathways) is a mural that reflects the deep cultural and ecological significance of Djarl-gar-ra (Canning River) and its surrounding waterways. The design embodies the seen and unseen connections of water - flowing above and beneath the land - symbolising healing, renewal, and the movement of people. Inspired by the local landscape and community, the artwork incorporates elements such as the Biboolboorn (paperbark tree), Cujong (acacia), Maali (black swan), and Woordawort/Kaalitj (dragonfly), all of which hold significance in Noongar culture. Travel lines and ripples in the design represent pathways - both traditional and modern - while the moon and dragonfly hues connect water and sky. This mural honors the ongoing care for Country and the balance between people, place, and nature.




The PTA acknowledges Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises  the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past and present.
