My son and I had a wonderful time at the kids tour of Olafur Eliasson's 'Presence' exhibition. It was awesome being able to enter the gallery before opening time and the tour was beautifully tailored towards kids, with an engaging host. The exhibition was a real sensory experience, great for busy bodies. We also enjoyed a coffee at the cafe while playing on the giant hose playground and were able to go back for more time at the exhibition afterwards because they gave us a passout. Every trip to the GoMA is a good time, but this was a really memorable experience and worth the admission.
GOMA – Presence | A mindful 🧘 sensory reset Visited Presence at GOMA and it was exactly what my soul needed a proper breath of fresh air. This exhibit nudges you to hit pause, tune into your senses, and let your mind and body reset and recharge. Like a perfectly layered dish, it feeds your senses light, sound, space, and movement all come together in a feast for the soul. GOMA is meant to be savoured, not rushed, and by the river, it’s the perfect spot to escape the daily grind. Left feeling grounded, inspired, and creatively nourished a gentle reminder to slow down and savour life. Highly recommend for a mindful moment.
My 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Google Review for GOMA GOMA – Presence | A mindful 🧘 sensory reset I visited Presence at GOMA over the weekend and it was exactly what my soul needed. This experience is a gentle invitation to slow down, breathe and become fully present. Much like mindful eating, you’re encouraged to tune into your senses - light, space, movement and sound - allowing your body and mind to reset and recharge. As someone who believes food is more than fuel, this exhibition felt very familiar to me. Just as flavours, textures and aromas bring a dish to life, Presence engages your senses in layers of loveliness , encouraging awareness, curiosity and calm. GOMA is Australia’s largest modern art gallery and it’s designed to be experienced, not rushed. Set by the Brisbane River, it’s the perfect place to step out of the noise of everyday life and give yourself permission to pause & breath it all in . I left feeling grounded, inspired and creatively nourished - a beautiful reminder of how powerful it is to slow down and reconnect with our senses. Highly recommend if you’re craving a mindful moment for your wellbeing. 🎬 Happy exploring, my 🧘 mindful friends Chef Jan #MindfulLiving #SensoryExperience #WellbeingJourney #Presence #GOMA #SlowDown #RechargeYourSenses #ChefJanCranitch #DeliciousAndNutritious #MindfulMoments
The Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) is one of my favourite places. I visited the GOMA and saw one of the best curated exhibitions. I have attached photos below of how good it is (just in case you don't believe me). The curator is simply brilliant and I felt like I was at peace, happy and calm whilst in the wonderful exhibition called "Inscribing a Life". Simply brilliant, beautiful and clean. Wonderful..... simply wonderful. Please go.....the exhibition lasts for a few months. I am writing this review in January 2026. I would love to compliment the curator. Thank you!!! Please see the attached photos for your edification and enjoyment. Thank you for reading my review. Love to the GOMA and warm regards to you the reader, Tina.
A truly beautiful art center — every floor has its own unique character and charm! It’s also incredibly family-friendly. The children’s area was wonderful, and Clare was exceptionally warm, friendly, and welcoming. Her bright smile and kindness made our visit such a joyful and memorable experience. Highly recommended!
