About the artist:
Ota Jirák (12 April 1949) studied puppet theatre at DAMU. He gradually established himself as a prominent figure in Czech theatre and film, working primarily at Semafor Theatre and F. R. Čech's Prozatímní Divadlo. He lent his voice to characters such as the plush figure Hele (he and Jiří Lábus have been voicing Jů and Hele 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 humour and dramatic expression, which allows him to enrich his artworks with absurdities and unique comical elements. He has created a series of enamels, drawings, and illustrations that have a strongly expressive style and a simplified yet apt form.
