Museo Moderno Hosts 'Desarmar la Moda · Modo Mundial' Textile Workshop
On June 28, 2026, the Museo Moderno in Buenos Aires held 'Desarmar la Moda · Modo Mundial', an open textile laboratory where participants deconstructed and reconstructed Argentina football shirts into unique pieces. Led by designer Martín Churba and studio 12NA (founded by Mercedes Martínez and Mariano Breccia), the workshop explored deconstruction, sewing, assembly, and upcycling techniques. The event aimed to transform a collective symbol into personal expression, merging design, contemporary art, and popular culture. Churba, founder of Tramando, has researched the intersection of fashion, art, technology, and textile innovation for over three decades. 12NA, established in 2004, specializes in transforming discarded materials into experiences and collective creation. A selection of the resulting shirts was shared online.
