FILMS
“The constant bombardment of external and internal noise is visceral. The desire to order it is profoundly human. The desire to rise out of its grip by harnessing it and creating out of its frightening randomness something of virtue is art. Guided by my instincts, I articulate the aloneness of our humanity not as a negative but as a given. Through movement portraits that shatter stereotypes and reveal the complexity of each person, I expose the underbelly of our existence: our vulnerability and fierceness. Through the intimacy and individuality of these portraits, I aim to convey deep universal truths.”
Featuring Lisa Bufano, the first disabled dancer Heidi worked with in 2006.
Commissioned by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts for the 30th anniversary of The Americans with Disabilities Act
Commissioned for "On Location at Montclair State University", a program orchestrated by Peak Performances at Montclair State University and underwritten by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

PORTRAIT PROJECT
The Portrait Project, a collaboration amongst Heidi Latsky, Mallika Chandaria and TJ Butzke, reveals the inner beauty of a select group of artists who have participated in Latsky’s ON DISPLAY by placing them in an immersive virtual environment. The Portrait Project explores portraiture through compositions comprised of layers of rich imagery that evoke strong emotion.
