About artists
The artistic duo of dancer and choreographer Andrea Miltnerová and director, lighting and sound designer Jan Komárek has been creating together for fifteen years. He experienced the dark years of communism in Czechoslovakia where he was employed in various mundane jobs as well as following a keen interest in music and painting and at times performing as a clown and puppeteer. He emigrated to Canada and for over a decade lived and worked in Toronto where he formed Sound Image Theatre and created his own performances, combining movement, live music and lighting design. He also worked as a lighting and sound designer for other professional dance and theatre ensembles in Canada. He received several prestigious Dora Mavor Awards for Best Play, Best Set and Lighting Design and Best Music. She was born of Czech parents in London, opted for a life of dance instead of sinology and came to Prague to dance with the National Ballet, consequently specialising in baroque dance and contemporary dance. Their joint work is a combination of the instinctive creative adventurer and aesthete and the perfectionist in search of the impossible, tinged by a touch of nostalgia and a ‘touch of class’. In their creations movement, light and sound are inseparable elements and are created together.
