"One of Portland's most disciplined and consistently interesting contemporary choreographers."

- Catherine Thomas, The Oregonian

"Like most Portland choreographers, she is an attentive craftsman; like only a few, she operates at a sophisticated conceptual level. Mathern is quite capable of evoking an intellectual response, a kinesthetic response and ultimately a visceral response as well."

- Cerinda Survant, The Oregonian

"Known for her precision kinetics and lush choreographic patterns that build abstract architectural ideas into swirling tapestries of sensual movement, Tere Mathern has become one of Portland's leading contemporary choreographers. She's able to draw impeccable performances from her dancers and craft smart, polished dance works that seem destined to tour nationally."

- Catherine Thomas, The Oregonian
