REVIEWS
"At a time when the language of contemporary dance has become all too ubiquitous, it is refreshing to see Quinteros building upon the legacy of great women choreographers."
- Limelight Magazine
"A captivating fusion of contemporary dance, taiko drumming and Japanese ritual... they executed the energetic, high speed, sometimes acrobatic choreography with focus, commitment and technical excellence.”
- Dance Australia
"Water Mirror is a powerful, energetic explosion of acrobatic and contemporary movement... a fun work that is experienced rather than observed. Quinteros and the entire creative team involved are to be congratulated for such a wonderful achievement".
- Dance Informa
"The show emerged from my passion for multidisciplinary collaboration. “I find inspiration when working with other artistic minds.” During the slow-paced COVID period, I took the time to develop and refine my ideas for Water Mirror. My interest in integrating various art forms—design, music, and dance—led to its creation. The collaborative process not only fosters fulfillment but also generates innovative ideas, resulting in a compelling production. This synergy of creativity is what truly brings the work to life."
