About the author:
Ota Jirák (born April 12, 1949) studied puppetry at DAMU (Theatre Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague). He gradually established himself as a prominent figure in Czech theatre and film, working primarily at the Semafor Theatre and F.R. Čech's Provisional Theatre. He lent his voice to characters such as the plush puppet Hele (Jů and Hele, voiced with Jiří Lábus, for over 40 years), Rubeus Hagrid from the Harry Potter saga, and the alien Alf. Regarding his artistic work, Ota Jirák has a fondness for caricatures and paintings that capture exaggerated, even grotesque features of people or animals. This work is directly inspired by his sense of humor and dramatic expression, which allows him to enrich his artistic work with absurdities and unique comedic elements. He has created a number of enamels, drawings, and illustrations that have a strongly expressive style and a simplified yet apt form.
