Jan Poš

Jan Poš (*1996) is a multimedia artist based in Prague. He playfully intertwines the mythological undercurrents of Western society with contemporary technologies, which have become central vehicles of expression in his artistic practice. At the core of his work lies a reflection on experiences that escape human empirical and cognitive capacities, which he explores through the phenomenon of myth. Myth began to actively shape his practice during his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague and continues to serve as one of the key frameworks guiding his artistic activity. He perceives myth as something that resists measurement and quantification, engaging with reality through archetypal images and symbolic logics, thus actively moving away from a simple rational approach. This orientation proved fundamental to his work The Myth of Hyperreality (2025).
