Personal life

Her maternal great-grandfather, Joseph Aggeler, emigrated from Switzerland to Mexico, with his wife, Theresia Schneider, a German. Her great-grandmother is originally from the Baden-Württemberg region. As a descendant of the area, when she visited her relatives, she was able to present an exhibition in the town hall of Neufra.[5] Her maternal grandmother, Laura Borrallez, has ancestors from Catalonia, Spain. Her mother, Martha Aggeler, wanted her daughter to be a model; as a result, early in her career, Iris studied modeling, makeup, and modern dance.[6]

Iris Aggeler was born in Mexico City. However, she spent most of her childhood in Tapachula, Chiapas. As an adult, she settled in Guadalajara and Oaxaca, where she carried out many cultural promotion activities. She currently resides in Mexico City. She and her mother addressed an open letter to President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and to the authorities, requesting a Patrimony Law, related to the human right to housing.[7]

Studies

Aggeler initially studied mathematical physics in Chiapas. She then moved to Mexico City, where she studied at the La Esmeralda National School of Painting, Sculpture and Engraving from 1991 to 1994. The same school housed renowned Mexican creators such as Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, Agustín Lazo, and Francisco Zúñiga. She learned history and artistic techniques. She also possesses experience and qualifications in writing, fashion design, independent cinema, public administration, and the administration of civil society organizations. Likewise, she has taken courses with various prominent figures in the arts and culture, including Manuel Ahumada, a comic book creator.

Art education

For over thirty years, Aggeler has been involved in art education, providing diplomas, workshops, and conferences. She developed the "Schneider Method for the Development of Consciousness in Art Teaching". She has taught at universities and cultural institutions in Mexico City and throughout Mexico.[8][9]
