This print and the music that accompanies it, are a collective and collaborative intention between Visual Artist Jose Ramirez and Musician Yaotl of Aztlan Underground, attempting to capture the 90s rebel Xikan@ culture. “Our song tries to capture the transformative rebel spirit of the 90s and all the upheaval,” says Yaotl of Aztlan Underground. At the same time, Artist Jose Ramirez rendered his impression of the band Aztlan Underground in an angular and emotional expressionist caricature style. The depiction invokes urgency and authentic intensity in its use of colors and contrasts with the song lyrics called Rebel 90s boldly placed within the painting.

“This song was inspired by Goddess 13, a band I formed with Theresa Covarrubias, and the statuette that inspired the band’s name. In 1991, an art exhibition called Mexico: Splendors of Thirty Centuries came to Los Angeles. Among the treasures was a little brown figurine. It was absolutely perfect and beautiful. It had no name, but it was labeled Goddess 13. I made a correlation between that ancient nameless goddess and ordinary women, specifically women of Mexican ancestry like myself, who shared a connection to the statuette’s origins,” artist says Alice Bag.

“This print is about Alice Bag and her journey of finding a connection to her creative force in music while exploring her ancestry and the divine feminine,” says Artist Rachel Negrete Thorson. “Perhaps this experience signaled our deep connection for many Chicana artists like me and Alice, in Los Angeles.
