About

I graduated at Prague Academy of Fine Arts (studio of classic painting techniques) after I had finished Vaclav Hollar school of art in Prague. Already during my studies in addition to paintings, I was interested in working on sculptures as well as intensive computer graphic designs. After graduation I worked as a freelance artist while working also as a graphic designer for software companies. Recently, I have been working on digital modified illustrations, three-dimensional objects and visual artworks of computer games. In 2008, I became a member of the independent game development studio Amanita Design, and fully participated in the development of computer games Machinarium and Samorost 3.

I irregularly:-) take part in group and solo exhibitions. I’m fascinated by robots, old machines and the vision of a biomechanical bizarre world where the dieselpunk and steampunk technologies blend together with the mysterious natural fragments.

Since 2005 I have lived permanently in Pardubice in the Czech Republic, where I actively participates in the presentation of contemporary art.
