Momix – "Botanica"
About BOTANICA
Created in 2009 and revived in 2026, BOTANICA is a lush, surreal journey through nature’s changing imagery, following the rhythms of the seasons and the passing of a day. Set to an eclectic score that ranges from birdsong to Vivaldi, the piece blends athletic movement with larger-than-life spectacle.
