🎓 About the Artist
Dominik Migač is a recent graduate of the Department of Alternative and Puppet Theatre at DAMU (Prague). His work is currently touring festivals across Europe, and he regularly leads workshops focused on integrating technology and puppetry.
His award-winning production Loops and Hoops explores the oppressive uniformity of the former Czechoslovak totalitarian regime through inventive mechanical systems and multimedia scenography.
