OBSCURENA FLASH INTERVIEW

Obscurena: Why Heavy Metal ?

Diana Rosa: It’s something that I feel but cannot explain. Of all the musical genres that I have explored, both as a listener and as a musician, metal was the one who sank in deepest in my skin and filled my soul. However, I enjoy many other music styles, and I believe that the healthiest option is to be open enough to appreciate musical quality regardless of its style.

Obscurena: What fascinates you in the Oriental Dance?

Diana Rosa: The universe of Oriental Dances (or bellydance) is much wider than one can possibly imagine, and has countless things that fascinate me. It’s a millennial dance that crossed time and geography, carrying a legacy of History and stories, and winds of distant and ancient cultures. It is a dance that teaches us to love ourselves and to know and accept our body in a special way. And it’s a dance that holds incomparable beauty and also cultural and spiritual richness.

Obscurena: How can you conciliate studies with all other activities?

Diana Rosa: Essentially, with lots of love. Because if I didn’t love everything that I do this much, I couldn’t bear all the necessary sacrifices required for everything to work: a strong willpower, dedication, discipline, cost containment, hard work and few hours of sleep.

Obscurena: You participated in ads and short films. What is your perspective on the world of representation?

Diana Rosa: It is a field in which I am still very inexperienced, but that seems to me very challenging and arouses my curiosity. If more opportunities like that happen to come to me, I’m sure I will take them and give my best. However, the world of agencies concerns me a little, because of their lack of honesty and professionalism, and I’ve had a few bad experiences related to this. Therefore, I believe that the safest way to get started in this world would be in small projects through direct collaboration with other artists, with no major intermediaries.
