Abstract: We determine the Zariski closure of the representations of the braid groups that factorize through the Birman-Wenzl-Murakami algebra, for generic values of the parameters $alpha,s$. For $alpha,s$ of modulus 1 and close to 1, we prove that these representations are unitarizable, thus deducing the topological closure of the image when in addition $alpha,s$ are algebraically independent.
