A Garden of Us – We Are the Women We’ve Been Waiting For
Meet the artist behind our new We Are the Women designs!
I am Flor Quiñones, Graphic Designer and Artist born and raised in Venezuela, shaped by a culture rich in music, color, and collective identity.
Growing up surrounded by strong immigrant women in my family, I learned early what resilience looks like, how strength can be quiet, shared, and deeply rooted in community. My love for art and music, and for gathering with friends and family, continues to influence how and why I create: as a way of connecting, remembering, and honoring where we come from.
We Are the Women We’ve Been Waiting For emerges from this personal and cultural foundation. The bouquet is composed of national flowers representing the countries that shape the diversity of the Treetops community, the team, and the girls and women they support. Like many diasporic experiences, these elements come together to form something unified yet layered, reflecting how migration and identity are often expressed through memory, symbolism, and shared narratives.
Each flower maintains its individuality while contributing to a collective whole, symbolizing the strength found in diversity. The composition grows upward, embodying resilience, care, and transformation values I have witnessed in the women in my life. The phrase “We Are The Women We’ve Been Waiting For” becomes both personal and communal: a recognition that the power we seek already exists within us, passed down through generations of women who have endured, adapted, and thrived.
This piece is not only about representation, it is about belonging. It honors the idea that even when we come from different places, we can grow together, rooted in shared strength.
