Iva Ščerbáková, MgA., graduated from the Department of Alternative and Puppet Theatre at DAMU. Her work connects puppet theatre, scenography, installation and performance, often using objects, textures and experimental materials. She collaborates with theatre ensembles and interdisciplinary art projects and also works in graphic design, illustration and author’s books.
