Drodesera Festival 2017: Alessandro Sciarroni and OHT in Video Interviews
The Drodesera Festival 2017 featured Italian performance artist Alessandro Sciarroni with three works: his first solo photography exhibition '41', the performance 'Chroma' (part of the 'Turning_' project exploring migration and transformation), and a restaging of 'Your Girl' with Chiara Bersani and Matteo Ramponi, a decade after its debut. The festival also presented OHT | Office For A Human Theatre's 'Project Mercury', a performance about two aspiring astronauts, Sara and Chiara, training for a space odyssey. The video interviews were curated by Dalila D’Amico, Marta Federici, and Chiara Pirri as part of the Superconnected project by Centrale Fies in Dro, Trento, aiming to hybridize roles between artist and critic.
