Visual artist, set designer, photographer and architect from the Czech Republic, based in Burkina Faso since 2012. With choreographer Ladji Kone I co-direct the Ciel K dance company. My research on aesthetics allows me to explore (re-)new materials, methods and media with dancers on stage and in public space.

I graduated from architecture in Prague, passing by Lyon and Paris. Already during my studies, internships and curiosity led me to discover the set design and visual art in Morocco, Ghana, and Burkina Faso. In light design I got trained alongside Simon Schroter from Berlin. In 2012, I joined the team of JCA - Jakub Cigler Architekti and since 2013 I have been running their experimental and pro-bono activities in Ethiopia, Mauritania and Burkina Faso.
