With limited photographic records available, historical sketches from the period helped inform the sculpture’s design, including Joseph’s stance and commanding presence.\u003cbr\u003eCreated to ensure his contribution is seen, remembered and shared, the sculpture acknowledges the deep history of Aboriginal cricket in Western Australia. Permanently positioned at the WACA Ground, Joseph now stands as a powerful connection between the game’s past and its future.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eArtwork Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eGillie and Marc\u003c\/span\u003e love working in bronze for many reasons.
