“My greatest influences are the theater, and the fine art. From the theatre, I could mention Grotowski, Artaud and Bruck. From fine art, there wouldn't be enough space to name them all. I don't have any particular interest in the animation artists, except maybe in some aspects, the usual suspects, that burst me to start with the animation, like Švankmajer, Quay, and especially the films of Janie Gaiser. I definitely remember from my school years some films by Anry Kulev and Ivan Veselinov, too.”
