ART, OBJECT AND FASHION CONCENTRATION (CCM)
PROFESSORS: ANA ELENA MALLET / PAMELA OCAMPO / BIBIANA COLMENARES / RAMIRO ESTRADA / MIGUEL ARJONA
ARCHIVO INMATERIAL
HONORARY MENTION
Archivo Inmaterial is a platform that seeks to be a new showcase for a contemporary generation of students and emerging designers from the concentration of Art, Object and Fashion, which consists of six courses with a focus on common. Oriented to a young community that seeks to learn about these topics without being experts. We show projects that go beyond conventional aesthetics and protocols, creating a space for freedom and expression.
Inmaterial was born from the idea that we are all different and everyone has different ideas and concepts that can be translated into ornaments, garments and accessories, creating objects of tangible value. But at the same time; creating a digital and timeless heritage; since now our legacy is immaterial and intangible. Here, anyone can shape their space and their history.

HISTORY AND THEORY OF FASHION IN MEXICO AND THE WORLD IN THE 20th CENTURY
PROFESSOR ANA ELENA MALLET
This first semester of 2021 implied many challenges for teachers and students. The pandemic that does not cease, forced us to continue working in a digital model, which although it was tiring, the truth is that it gave us many advantages: materials at hand, many tools to improve presentations, and easy communication. The subject I started teaching in 2020 has been maturing and taking its course. This program designed to be taught digitally, and with digital outlets for students, has begun to bear fruit. Once again, we found in the Iphone an optimal device to generate a didactic experience that resulted in original and motivating digital products or projects.
During this period, the students worked, in teams, on three digital projects that are presented here: first a series of memes, which had to be based on what they had studied in class. The Meme has become a powerful communication tool of our time that synthesizes humor, reflections and thoughts. The challenge was to integrate fashion and its historical discourses. In the second partial the delivery was a podcast, which should also include content reviewed in class. In a clever way, the group came together and proposed to make a series, instead of a podcast per team. Thus, in solidarity, they united and landed their contents so that they could dialogue with each other and created a series entitled "Miradas en la moda", which subjectively records the opinions and visions of each team. The students achieved their goal of generating new information and interesting reflections in an entertaining and didactic way.
The final delivery was a Fashion Film, i.e. a short digital film, recorded and edited with iPhone technology, which also included content learned in class and the personal vision of each team. Once again, #shotoniphone became the hashtag for this submission and the results seem to mark an important moment in the development of these students who show a breakthrough in their visual culture and cultural references.
The challenges of this pandemic have been many, the digital acceleration that for many has been exhausting, has come to refine glances, to discover tools and to allow access to solutions that were difficult to produce before. Fashion in its historical dimension, is also a daily topic that should be discussed and reviewed on various platforms and from different points of view. I believe that in this course we achieved it.

ACCESSORY DESIGN
PROFESSOR MIGUEL ARJONA
BEST GROUP PROJECT
An accessory is an object or piece that seeks to complement a body in a functional or ornamental way. It works as an add-on or secondary element that enhances a base component making it more attractive or useful.
A collection of functional accessories was created, which solve some human need; and symbolic that should not necessarily be useful, but rather convey a concept.
