The performance-ritual is limpia, or shamanic cleansing, using brooms in a rhythmic, tapping pattern as well as sweeping to draw the ‘blocked’ energy from deep within the earth. The bullroarers, spinners and wind whistles drive the energy upward. The fifteen-minute wordless performance-ritual was first performed on Feb. 4, 2006, at the Museo de la Ciudad de Querétaro, Mexico. Twenty-five women used the sounds and movements of brooms, pre-Columbian wind whistles, bullroarers and spinners as a limpia to bring a sense of empowerment to the women who have lost their daughters as well as a feeling of solidarity. The ritual also intends to bring light to the murdered daughters. Bethe Hagens who made the bullroarers and spinners and three mothers from Juárez, Julia Cano, Rubi Pando, Ramona Gonzales, were part of this original event. The original installation-performance-ritual is currently traveling in the exhibition The Missing Peace in honor of the Dalai Lama.
