The works of Jaroslav Róna are especially attractive to the audience. They radiate tension and drama and man's struggle with being, where he was thrown without his own intervention. He has to endure various situations, deal with them, with the awareness of his own finiteness, and in the case of the submitted work, They are among us with the fact that he may not be alone in the universe or that he is not the master of all creation. Jaroslav Róna is undoubtedly one of the most important representatives of the generation of the 1980s, the author of several significant realizations in public space (Franz Kafka Monument in Prague) and is also a member of the Tvrdohlaví group (since 1987). He belongs to the leading representatives of Czech postmodernism.
