The Australian Bureau of Statistics’ (ABS) spectacular three-dimensional art work created at Brisbane’s Queens Street Mall can now be re-lived online.

Time-lapsed vision of the chalk illustration, drawn by internationally renowned artist Jenny McCracken, is available on our YouTube channel, Census Australia.
