Dance Seen It’s Dark Here

BY STEPHEN WHITE

NOTHING PREPARED ME FOR THE WIND. I expected it to be dark here in Reykjavík; it is December after all. I anticipated chilly weather and brought the appropriate clothing. I checked the forecasts so the rain wasn’t a complete surprise, but the wind….

I’m here at ICE HOT Nordic Dance Platform. It was at this biannual event two years ago in Copenhagen that I found that gem, MAN, which I’m very excited to bring to Salt Spring and Victoria later this month. This time, my colleague Bernard Sauvé joined me at ICE HOT and our two husbands also tagged along. We arrived two days before the start of the festival so we could see and experience Iceland. On the second day, Bill and I met Bernard and Michael at their hotel, and set out on a 25-minute walk to pick up a rental car for the day.

It was pitch black when we set out at 9:30 am. (Sunrise is 11:15am. Sunset is 3:30pm) There was a bit of a drizzle. We turned up our collars and started our trek. Ten minutes in, the wind picked up suddenly. Make that gale force wind. So strong that at one point it held me in one spot unable to move forward. I half expected an uprooted tree to sail through the air and impale Bill as we trudged onward. In no time we were soaked. But we are hardy Canadians. We persevered.

Somehow, that first morning impacted my experience of the entire festival. It seems that something of the brutal, raw, elements on this rock in the middle of the North Atlantic, this rock seething with volcanic eruptions and steaming geysers, has permeated the work that I’m seeing on stage. These dance performances have been very dark.

The opening night at the impressive City Theatre was a four-hour marathon performed by the Icelandic Dance Company replete with film, dance, and lobby animation, a rambling life and death epic with lots of screaming and flailing. Other smaller, shorter works have also focused on murky subjects. I scratched my head when I attended one of the daily pitch sessions, where artists are given twelve minutes to show videos and talk about works that are ready to tour.

One couple was very excited to tell us about their work with mealworms. Their piece featured a woman in a rubber suit, lying in the middle of a sandbox-like structure under a four-metre transparent geodesic dome, surrounded by a thousand mealworms chewing their way through Styrofoam waste. (Mealworms eat Styrofoam, who knew?)

It all feels so dystopian. It’s so so dark. But then I wonder, is this Nordic Noir or is it a reflection of the times that we live in? FN

Interview with Pamela Martin of Matryoshka Rehearsal Tutus & Custom Leotards Pamela Martin has been creating exquisite, handmade tutus, custom leotards and dance costumes from her home studio in Victoria West since 2011. Her dance attire and meticulous attention to detail has made her a sought-after designer throughout North America. We sat down with Pamela to learn more about her art.

Why did you name your business Matryoshka Rehearsal Tutus?

I’ve always loved Matryoshka dolls and more so after my husband brought me back a set when he went to Russia. When I saw my first professional tutu up close, I thought how similar it is to those dolls, layer after layer, inside one another.

How does the design process unfold from concept to finished product?

Once I find out the variation and see either a video or photos of the dancer, I design the costume ensuring it will be suitable for them, but I also consider historical notes or sketches/photos of the original costume. After my rendering has been accepted by the dancer/coach, measurements and fittings are organized. I am usually flown to their studio if they are out of town or they come to me. For clients very far (Australia, Switzerland, Taiwan, etc.), we do FaceTime fittings. The costume is then completed and either hand delivered or couriered to the dancer.

How many fittings does a dancer usually have for a tutu or leotard?

For leotards, no fittings are needed as they are made to the measurements that are sent to me. For a tutu, there are between one and six fittings depending on the costume and the dancer, but the average is three fittings.

How many tulle pieces are typically in a performance tutu?

There can be between 10 to 14 metres of different weight nets, cut into varying widths. Once sewn to the panty, the layers are then controlled by “tacking”, which I do by hand. Each layer is tied to the layer above by knots. There can be hundreds of hand tied knots in each tutu to achieve the shape that I want.

Tell us about one of your most challenging design projects.

This past November I was brought to New York City to meet the sole Canadian pre-selected for Prix de Lausanne. Between hotel glitches, the airline damaging my sewing machine, and limited time with a dancer and teacher I’ve not previously worked with, I realized this was actually pretty normal. The real challenge of costuming is having to think on your feet when things go wrong.

You recently designed a costume for a Bolshoi ballerina. What did you make?

Being on the radar of a Bolshoi dancer is one thing, but to have them request you create for them is surreal. I made Stanislava a rehearsal romantic tutu — ombre dyed pink and a leotard. The fabric was

custom printed in Victoria so hers is the only one like it. She sent me a video of her rehearsing Giselle on the Bolshoi stage wearing her tutu, which made for a pretty great day! Seeing it on social media, as she is often photographed, is always a thrill.

What do you love about your career?

Everything! From meeting new people to traveling, fabric, and of course the lace! It’s stressful and half the time I don’t even know what day it is, but there is absolutely nothing like seeing dancers put their costume on for the first time. They just seem to glow and often there are tears from mom and dad. They’ll never forget this. It is then I think how lucky I am that this is my job. I get to sew memories not just costumes.
