About the author:
Ota Jirák (12 April 1949) studied puppet theatre at DAMU. He gradually developed into 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, for example, the plush character Hele (Jů and Hele have been voiced by him and 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 humour and dramatic expression, which allows him to enrich his artworks with absurdities and unique comical elements. He has created a number of enamels, drawings, and illustrations that have a strong expressive style and a simplified, yet apt form.
