AOFF FINALIST 2022 – ROXANNE OUELLET-BERNIER CANADA – University Quebec Montreal UQAM Models – Miguel Roa & Emmanuel Ramirez XY Models, Medellín Beauty – El Muñequero CONCEPT – EPIPHANY Drawing from Quebec’s collective memory, this collection reflects an intergenerational passivity, where the years under the rule of the Catholic Church have indoctrinated the people into a submission that endures. If Quebec can feel the international turmoil resonate through its foundation, the idyll we live in confines us to a pacified world that refused the ambiguity of life. 📍PUENTE COLGANTE DE SAN CRISTÓBAL Through her design-exploration and her very conceptually garment design, candidate Roxanne Ouellet Bernier, proposes her design project to be the door through which people can have a glance into a coherent reality bringing them closer to ways of seeing more in line with the evolution of the world. This bridge in San Cristóbal is the vehicle that helps bring the new closer. Likewise, having the two male models wearing her genderless collection while walking on the bridge, is also an allusion to the long time walk that has been achieved by the church and the fact that they are looking for forgiveness. 📌Congratulations again to all the selected student designers – FINALISTS, from the world’s top design schools, presented their vision with RESONANCE as the theme, competing in the International Arts of Fashion Competition 2022 in Medellín.
