Street art duet Julieta xlf and Bifido presented their new work in Requena, Spain. As in their previous works, they blend techniques in order to reach a stylistic and poetical equilibrium. It is titled “Le Baccanti”.
As in Euripides`tragedy the “baccanti” joined Dioniso to find their freedom and the best way to express themselves, so in our work the girl joins the typical elements of the local landscape to get emancipated and become a free woman. The wine, represented by some grape berries held in her hands, serves as chance of something else. Richness of the land and unconsciousness, to achieve full awareness. The girl, split, looks at her previous self, a free woman, able to be whatever she is, without compromise. A woman as fierce as the surrounding landscape, that she held strongly, becoming part of it.
