Jan Matýsek is a visual artist and a stage designer. He builds his own stories and myths out of external and internal inputs and through their associations and causalities explains phenomena between heaven and earth. He combines transhumanism, ecofeminism, and physicality with psychotherapeutic tools of hypnosis and incantation. He primarily expresses through videos with an emphasis on the imagination of unconsciousness. He composes his videos into video installations – imaginary, ritual spaces, and mediates its transformation or transcendence on an inner level through direct communication with the audience. He’s inspired by shamanic practices of initiation and becoming aware of the hidden. He studied at the studio of new media 2 at AVU in Prague, studio of stage design at JAMU in Brno, and had an internship at the studio of experimental film at UdK in Berlin
