MOMIX

MOMIX Creates Another World With Botanica

Stephanie Sirabian, 14th December

Watching MOMIX’s Botanica is like travelling to another world—one where the lines between reality and illusion are blurred. The dancers and their costumes create a performance that must be recognized as the sum of its parts. In this way, Botanica uses the organic quality of dance for a completely unique representation of nature.

Ivy Lin

Ivy Lin's love of ballet began in high school when at the school dance she quickly realized she had two left feet. One always admires things one cannot do, and so Ivy began to attend dance performances to marvel at the grace and beauty of bodies in motion. Ivy's day job is a biology teacher and after a long day in the classroom she loves to unwind by watching dance. She also enjoys theater, opera, pop and classical music.
