The Museum of Arts and Sciences, Macon, Georgia, in partnership with Wonderspaces, presents
Erupture
by Nicole Banowetz from March 6, 2026 to July 11, 2026. This interactive, immersive experience is installed in the Burgess Gallery at the right of the museum lobby. The Wonderspaces partnership is underwritten through a generous contribution by the Knight Foundation.
Denver based sculptor Nicole Banowetz creates monumental sewn inflatable sculptures that address vulnerability and struggle, inspired by the natural world. Her forms move freely between growth and decay, blurring the distinction between decoration and disease. Erupture is a large-scale inflatable sculpture that depicts a surreal landscape of microscopic lifeforms. Its enlarged presence makes the installation feel calm and comforting yet disorienting. The artist sewed the work entirely by hand, sharing the vulnerability between artist, viewer, and the installation as a whole.
