Flock of All Colors

Stitch Buffalo will be exhibiting at the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens, in tandem with the annual spring flowers show. The exhibition, titled A Flock Of All Colors, entails colorful stitched birds that will be hung from the plants, and perched on the vibrant foliage within the Botanical Gardens’ Palm Dome.

In Flock of All Colors, Stitch Buffalo explores the commonality of all people in our quest for peaceful coexistence, welcoming communities, and individual expression as we navigate our time between the earth and sky.

The exhibit centers on the theme of birds as a metaphor for freedom, enlightenment, hope, and wisdom. These associations with birds are found in virtually every cultural tradition, making them an ideal form for the expression of universal human desires. Soaring above the trees and nestled amongst the vibrant foliage in the large central Palm Dome of the Botanical Gardens, these colorful birds encourage visitors to consider the space from a fresh and emotionally elevated perspective.
