Burner Caroline &ldquo;Glitter Kitty&rdquo; Ghosn was the Lead Artist chosen for her design, which is inspired by Lebanese Khaizaran chairs and her battle with multi-generational trauma and illness.&nbsp;</p> <figure><figure><a href="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/59/599f468952b85e98cff1089290802051.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=1028" target="_blank"><img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/59/599f468952b85e98cff1089290802051.jpeg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=514"></a><figcaption>Temple of Together by Caroline Ghosn.
