Dance, Expression, Movement, Ritual - Simulation, Directed by Heather Lang and Purdie Baumann

Simulation expresses the deep love for dance, community, nature, and the joy of coming together. Co-directed by longtime friends and performers Heather Lang and Purdie Baumann, their short film captures the unique expression found within dance, creating a visually captivating video that explores this connection and the creative process itself.

Born from a shared history that stretches back to their teenage years in Chicago and shaped by their journey through New York’s performance scene, Simulation emerged as both a celebration and a reclamation: of the sacredness of dance, of the body’s wisdom, and of the collaborative spirit that fuels meaningful art.
