What does it mean to live a meaningful life?


Life is busy and can get crazy. We’re always on the go. Whether we’re stuck in traffic, stuck at the office, or waking up from a nap on the couch with construction paper stuck to your forehead and your child laughing at you with a glue stick in their hand— making healthy choices can often go by the wayside.

Life can be great and life can also be overwhelming – especially as we navigate the everyday challenges of 21st century living.  The effects of stress, poor sleep, our constant connection to devices and a jam-packed weekly schedule, are leaving us exhausted. Good habits and great tools will help you feel on top of things again and be inspired about your life.

What does it mean to live a meaningful life?

Our lifestyles, alongside our ideas of what constitutes a life with meaning, continually shift with time. We buy lifestyle brands, we make lifestyle choices, we read lifestyle magazines. But we also strive to improve our health, connect with family and friends, form and become part of communities, express our ideas and desires, enjoy leisure activities and create hope for the future. While the clichéd Queensland lifestyle is one of sun, sand and sea, the reality is far more nuanced and diverse — just like our landscape and our population.

Lifestyle: a sunshine state of mind takes the concept of lifestyle and the context of Queensland and draws them together to present an interactive, participatory exhibition that explores six universal elements of living — wellbeing, home, expression, play, community and hope — against a unique sunshine state backdrop. In the process, it hopes to challenge stereotypes, provoke thought and engagement and shape ideas and stories about what the future of Queensland lifestyle might hold.
