La Llorona’s Sacred Waters

Be the first to rate

This large-scale mural by Juana Alicia at 24th and York Streets reinterprets the legend of La Llorona, the Weeping Woman, through a water-based visual language. The work links the myth to contemporary struggles faced by women and children, referencing issues such as water rights conflicts in Bolivia, protests by Indian farm workers impacted by large dam projects, and violence against female maquiladora workers along the U.S.–Mexico border.
