Residents go back in time and step inside bohemian Paris

Brookland Robertson and Samford Grove residents were transported to the streets of 19th-Century Paris following a visit to an interactive art exhibit at Brisbane’s Northshore.

The Monet in Paris event was an immersive art experience, following the life and art of Claude Monet and fellow Impressionist artists like Degas, Pissarro, Cezanne, Renoir and more.

The lucky residents were treated to sensory delights and artistic masterpieces like Monet’s waterlilies, projected on larger-than-life screens, in a 360-degree immersive experience.

Situated in a purpose-built Grand Palais, the ten Brookland residents who visited the exhibit first snapped a photo out the front to mark the occasion, before saying au revoir and heading back home.
