04 Jiří Dvořák

Actor and dubber, a cast member of the Vinohrady Theater named his potty "Honza".

Where did you look for the inspiration and how did the creation itself go?

I cannot paint. I even had someone to help me, but that is a secret. I decided to go with a collage of photos taken from the “Anděl Páně” (opět název, bych nechal, a jen treba dat za nazev do zavorky: A Czech movie) fairytale, which I believe makes people happy. Therefore it is my hope that the potty will do so as well.

How high would you like the actual bid for your potty to be at the auction?

The highest. It is for a good cause, so let everyone spend as much as they can.

Do you know the Museum of Hygiene, which besides being the largest one in the world is now regularly involved in various charity events?

I do, and I find it very inspiring. When one visits the museum, he realizes that it is possible to take a dump and make it into an esthetically interesting artifact.

Do you know the ´Premature babies and their families´ endowment fund, to which the proceeds from the auctioned pots will be donated?

Yes, I do. Thank God it exists. 

Have you ever encountered this problem in your life?

I have not, but I have seen a photo of an unborn baby which was as small as a pen. That picture left a big impact on me. What surprised me even more though, was the team of nurses and doctors capable of transforming the poor thing into a healthy and beautiful child later.

What is the name you chose for your potty and why?

Honza. He is very lazy and that’s why I named the potty after him. Noone would want to leave their warm bed to go to on a potty, and this way he had it accessible right away under his bed.

Just let me note:

With this little pot we hope for a great relief :-)
