Dino Rovaretti is young artist who is Newport born, Falmouth trained and Bristol based, currently making work as an individual and part of performance trio The Daughter's Of Albion. For the past 10 days we have given Dino space, time, money and support as part of #Molecule a Performance Development Scheme we hope to continue in order to support performing artists and the creation of new and exciting performance work in Newport.
Ahead of his work-in-progress sharing tomorrow, we ask Dino a few questions:
_____________________________________________________________________________
Dino Rovaretti - Made Of Paper
Can you describe your idea in less 5 words?
-No.
How have you found it being Molecule's guineapig (so to speak)?
-It's been a really good opportunity to set time aside to work solely on one idea. Having the space and mentor support to develop a show is totally invaluable, especially when working in a solo format.
At this early stage, what do you hope to get from sharing your work with an audience?
- I'm going to present a finished piece, but I am aware that after a week in a space there is still a lot that could be developed. I hope to give an audience a sense of my performance style and the story I am sharing. Using my medical notes as the starting point when devising this piece is really a personal thing, it anchors the piece in a self-evaluating mode but whilst I invite the audience to get lost in the story of a boy and his teddy bear I'd like the piece to open a dialogue about wider questions around the body,medicine, and narrative in contemporary performance.

Today and tomorrow we'll be preparing The Project Space for Dino's sharing.
Downstairs there will be a bar, some live music, a new gallery exhibition to wonder around and a chance to have a chat before going up stairs and seeing Dino's work. Afterwards we will be openly encouraging people to fill out feedback forms and share their thoughts on Molecule's first outing and Dino's Work-In-Progress.
