Rulan Tangen’s life’s work is to turn dreams into embodied reality, most significantly through the founding of DANCING EARTH CREATIONS which gathers and nurtures Indigenous contemporary dancers along with related artists of music, costume, video, visual art and photography to  express their culture through vital experimental forms – both ancient and futuristic.

These contemporary performances are functional rituals for transformation, guided by intertribal elders with themes dedicated to ecological healing of humanity in relationship with each other, earth, air, sky, and all forms of life.
