The Middlebury College Museum of Art presents An Invitation to Awe, an exhibition centered around exploring where and how awe is most readily experienced. The exhibit features older paintings and prints displayed alongside contemporary objects, scientific equipment, and interactive works, encouraging viewers to consider how awe can be experienced through senses beyond sight. Mikael Owunna's photograph Nommo Semi (Guardian of Space) is featured in this exhibition. Part of his Infinite Essence series, this image reflects his exploration of indigenous African knowledge systems and his mission to create a visual style that uniquely captures their cosmic grandeur.
