What critics say about Apariciones de la Madre/Apparitions of the Mother


"Lean, slight and gracefully athletic, Licia Perea is a dancer of vision. Through movement and poetry, she weaves magic, combining the personal, the political, the spiritiual, the historical, the feminine and the human. Perea’s excellent conceptual and choreographic skills brings the three periods (Aztec, Spanish conquest and contemporary times) dramatically to life.”

"Apariciones de la Madre is a sensuous and passionate exploration of Southwestern goddess mythlogy... In Perea’s concept, poetry, music and dance cross-pollinated to make a powerful statement about violence and the redeeming power of love.”
