Brisbane

The Anatomy of Happiness tells the story of the human body and the influence that the emotional phenomenon of ‘happiness’ has on our health. The legendary BODY WORLDS exhibit seen by more than 56 million people globally presents this brand new exhibition for the first time ever in Australia in Brisbane for a limited engagement.
Like every movement, perception, or sensation, happiness is the result of certain processes in the body. BODY WORLDS: The Anatomy of Happiness interprets the latest research and findings by social scientists on how happiness is determined and presents medical findings about the impact of happiness on the body and mind. The exhibition will teach audiences what parts of their anatomy are involved in happiness and how positive or negative emotions can affect the entire body.
All specimens were donated specifically for plastination and are preserved by the revolutionary process invented by Dr. Gunther von Hagens.
