Digital Projects
UFEG invites you to participate in the Future Fashion Forum, which this year brings together leading experts in fashion, design and technology on the theme of “Symbiotics”. This Open Call invites artists, designers and creators to explore and rethink the relationship between humanity, nature and digital technologies through innovative Digital Fashion. As technology becomes an integral part of modern life, the forum will explore opportunities for harmonious collaboration, creating concepts that will help shape the future of the fashion world.
The selection of works aims to support artistic ideas that reflect a surrealistic imagination of the future and embody them through various Digital Fashion formats.
Topic: Symbiotics
style: Surrealism
Goal: To develop a new aesthetic that goes beyond the utilitarian and focuses on developing fresh stylistic narratives in the genre of surrealism at the intersection of two worlds.
Task: To explore the interaction of the physical and virtual worlds, creating a “contamination” of styles — a unique mix of genres that gives rise to new, grounded concepts. The works should visualize reflections on the topic: what does surrealism mean in fashion in the 21st century in a digital format.
