OWLS of the WORLD

My week has been such a very hectic but productive one.  It started of with a lecture on African Religion in the Reli 101 class on Wednesday.  I was privileged to be part of the “Women at Rice Project” on Thursday where I co-presented with my wonderful project partner – Samhita Sunya.  Today, marked another high point for me.  It was the Rice University 2014 edition of the International Cultural fair.  The awesome, intriguing, fearsome, and for some ominous bird, , the Owl – is Rice mascot.  I decided to make a collection of some world owls and then to ask members of Rice community what the owl is called and represent in their culture.  My findings are amazing.  I will be analyzing my response in the next couple of weeks and will be feeding you back with my findings.  For now, please feed your eyes with the beautiful and colorful collections of some owls.  I particularly, will draw your attention to the Owls labelled “O.”  Here is the link to my exhibition at the fair: Owls of the World.
