Chiron Duong | Identification I
Photographer: Chiron Duong
Title: Identification I
Shot in 2020, this work examines the facades of society; "Identification: the psychological transformation of a person affects his behavior, his style. Do we need to get rid of fake faces/masks? We try to find an identity, but all this leads to cyclically repeating events...We again lay on the floor, without a face...Who am I? Why am I? In search of utopia. Perhaps our mission is to be faceless?" (Chiron Duong).
Large scale framed photography available through The Selects Gallery.

Cootie Birds Wallpaper from Weirdoh Birds
COOTIE had a rough childhood. He had the cooties for years. All the other birds never wanted to get near him.This rejection made him all the more flamboyant and outgoing. Now you won’t find him without an entourage in tow.
COOTIE reigns supreme in his popularity and overzealous personality. A simple, clean, and lux layout with this fun feathered friend.

Shakers Architecture: Did Diversity Drive Innovation 11/16
Near the end of the 18th Century, the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, New York formed an intentional, faith-based society that thrived well into the 19th Century. The Shakers are celebrated as pioneers of modern design—for their architecture, interiors, furnishings, and landscape—as well as for being pioneers of diversity and inclusion. In Shaker society, women and people of color played equal roles in governance, creative pursuits, and cultural development.
This program, developed by the AIANY Custom Residential Architecture Network (CRAN) in partnership with the Shaker Museum, will explore the question, "Did the diversity of Shaker society drive their remarkable innovations?" At the program, attendees will view three short video presentations exploring Shaker design, the role of women and people of color in Shaker society, and the impact of the Shakers on contemporary design.
Following the presentations, Lacy Shutz of the Shaker Museum will moderate a roundtable conversation, asking panelists and audience members to tap into their own experiences to envision how embracing diversity can impact the design industry today.

IIDA Quilt-a-Palooza
Get involved with SQBee! Join us in person or virtually on Teams. In addition to having multiple ways to attend the Bee, we have multiple ways to participate in the quilting!
Team Quilting:
Typically, teams are formed to create quilts made from unwanted textiles and samples from our industry. These teams usually divvy up the work amongst themselves and share their progress during quilting bees. If you have a team or a concept and would like to participate this way, AWESOME! Thanks for keeping our quilting tradition alive! We’re so excited to see what you’ve created. Come to a Bee to share what you’ve been working on; pick out fabrics; or work on your quilt.
Quilt-A-Palooza Style:
A new way to join the SQBee community! Quilts will be created based on a design by a prominent designer from our industry. The work for these quilts will be done during Quilt-a-Palooza sessions / Bees where anyone can lend a hand in any part of the process (cutting, pinning, sewing, pressing). This is a great way to get involved if you don’t have a team, don’t have the time to commit to an entire quilt or want to get your feet wet with the Sustainable Quilt Auction.
