This traffic signal box is a part of the Craigieburn Road Legacy Art trail.

As part of the Craigieburn Road Upgrade, Major Road Projects Victoria worked with local artists and the community to reimagine and reinvent public spaces through a signal box art trail. 

Local artists were invited to contribute to a vibrant art trail featuring 30 traffic signal cabinets along Craigieburn Road. Each piece of public art tells the story of "What makes Craigieburn unique," serving as the main theme of the art installation. The artwork also celebrates sub-themes such as community, connection, travel, history, culture, diversity, environment, nature, and sustainability.

Ghassan is an accomplished artist who began his journey in oil-based art in 1979. Over the years, he has expanded his skills and talents to embrace a variety of materials and artistic forms. His diverse portfolio includes paintings, sculptures, and innovative refurbishments of various products, each piece reflecting his artistic flair and creativity.

In 2015, Ghassan was awarded first prize in an art competition organised by the Brotherhood of St Lawrence, recognising his talent and contribution to the art community. More recently, in 2022, he earned second place in another competition organized by Arabic Welfare, aimed at raising awareness of family violence.

Ghassan’s work is characterised by a passion for storytelling; he seeks to bring life to his art, inviting viewers to engage with the narratives behind each piece. Through his creative expression, he continues to inspire and connect with audiences on a deeper level.

This piece is titled "Knowledge and Experience" - a person is built by many pieces of paper formed together.
