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.

We visited the Presence exhibition by Olafur Eliasson and it was truly outstanding. The exhibition is immersive and thoughtfully curated, encouraging you to slow down and fully engage with the space. The installation featuring the sun was a major stand out, both visually and emotionally and the riverbed installation was equally impressive in how it transformed the gallery environment. Each room felt intentional and quietly powerful. One of the unexpected highlights for me was the LEGO table. It sounds simple but I could have easily spent hours there. It was playful, calming, and a lovely contrast to the scale and intensity of the surrounding works, showing how interactive and accessible the exhibition is for all ages. After the exhibition, we also spent time exploring the other galleries. The Archie Moore Kith and Kin exhibition was incredibly powerful and deeply emotional. It added a strong cultural and human layer to the visit and stayed with me long after leaving. Experiencing multiple exhibitions in one visit made the gallery feel rich, layered, and thoughtfully programmed. Beyond the exhibitions themselves, the gallery is a beautiful and very well designed space. It is easy to navigate, spacious, and filled with natural light. The facilities are excellent, including clean amenities and comfortable areas to pause and reflect. The staff throughout the gallery were extremely helpful, approachable and genuinely enthusiastic, which really elevated the experience. Overall, the Gallery of Modern Art is a must visit in Brisbane, whether you are deeply interested in contemporary art or simply looking for a meaningful and inspiring way to spend a few hours. We left feeling calm, moved, and genuinely inspired.

We had a lovely day at the Gallery of Modern Art. We caught the CityCat over from another spot using the 50-cent fares, which made the trip easy and affordable. We enjoyed lunch there and then spent time exploring the gallery. There was plenty for kids to enjoy, and most of the exhibitions were free, which was a big bonus. A great, relaxed day out in the city for families.

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!
