This work is part of the series On an Overgrown Path

Jan Theun van Rees approaches photography by creating the space he wants to photograph. For Overgrown Path 02, he uses painted textile structures to develop an environment that suggests dense growth and difficult terrain. He works from within the construction, responding to the way light, material and camera position alter the space.

Part of On an Overgrown Path, the work takes its title from Janáček’s piano cycle, whose short compositions connect emotion with moments in a life. Van Rees brings that sense of inward journey into photography. The resulting image holds a tension between attraction and unease: the viewer is drawn into a place that feels familiar, yet remains just beyond reach.

This work is part of the series On an Overgrown Path

Jan Theun van Rees has spent much of his career looking at spaces in transition: museum backrooms, theatre stages and other places usually hidden from view. In Overgrown Path 01, that act of looking turns into construction. Van Rees builds a temporary environment from painted textiles, adjusting its surfaces and viewpoints as he works with the changing light.

The work belongs to On an Overgrown Path, a project named after Leoš Janáček’s piano cycle of fourteen short pieces, each associated with an emotion and a moment in life. Here, the constructed space becomes a landscape of the mind: a passage that draws us forward while resisting easy passage. The set exists for the camera; the photograph is what remains.

From the series Fragments of Clarity

In What Lies Between, Sophie de Vos brings two hands and forearms together against a dark background. One appears clear and sharply defined, while the other breaks into ripples and fragments. The contrast draws attention to the curve of the fingers, the texture of skin and the space between the gestures.

The closely cropped composition gives a familiar subject an unfamiliar appearance. As contours shift and details become obscured, the eye moves between the physical presence of the hands and the distortion of their image.

From the series Fragments of Clarity

In Echoes Around the Edges, Sophie de Vos brings two pale flowers into focus against a dark background. Finely detailed petals contrast with green stems and leaves, while ripples and fragmented reflections interrupt the image. Some elements remain sharply visible; others seem to dissolve into the surrounding darkness.

The composition draws the eye between the two blooms and along their wavering stems. Delicate botanical forms meet a shifting surface, allowing the image to move between recognition and abstraction.

Archival pigment ink on Innova ”Soft Textured BrightWhite Photorag” with nutwood frame and museumglass

This work is part of the series Painted Room

In this series, Jan Theun van Rees explores the relationship between art and the spaces in which it is displayed. He photographs museum interiors through reflections in artworks or the glass of their frames. Blurred fragments of the original work remain visible, merging with the surrounding architecture and creating a new photographic composition.

This small-scale photograph was created at the Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck in Germany during Silent Spaces, a retrospective exhibition of photographer Axel Hütte. The reflection shows how an artwork can shape the atmosphere and perception of the room around it.

Licht Omloop is part of Jan Theun van Rees' ongoing series Painted Room. Through a process of constructing, observing and continuously repositioning elements in relation to changing daylight, the artist creates photographs in which colour and space remain in constant flux.

In Licht Omloop, warm orange tones are balanced by areas of aqua blue and subtle touche of purple. The image hovers between abstraction and architecture, suggesting depth and movement without revealing the temporary set from which it emerged. Rather than depicting an existing space, the work presents a carefully constructed situation in which light, perspective and colour come together in a single moment.

Zeldzaam Groen is part of Jan Theun van Rees' ongoing series Painted Room. Working with temporary constructions, shifting daylight and carefully positioned elements, the artist creates photographs in which colour, space and perspective remain in constant flux.

In this work, a soft green surface and subtle spatial cues create an image that moves between abstraction and architecture. The final composition is not predetermined but emerges through observation, adjustment and photography. What appears to be a simple image reveals itself as a carefully balanced construction, resulting in a photograph that invites a slower way of looking.

This work is part of the series Painted Room

This photograph is part of the ongoing Painted Room series by Jan Theun van Rees, in which temporary architectural spaces are constructed using painted strips of textile. Through the careful interplay of light, colour, material, and perspective, the artist creates compositions that exist only for a brief moment before being transformed into photographic works.

Natural daylight plays a central role in the process. As the light changes throughout the day, shadows shift across the installation, creating visual relationships that are unique to a specific place and moment in time. The installation is continuously adjusted in response to these changing conditions, while the camera position evolves alongside the work.

Rather than documenting a fixed scene, the photograph captures a temporary spatial construction in constant transition. Light, space, material, and viewpoint influence one another throughout the process, resulting in an image whose final outcome remains uncertain until the photographs are reviewed afterwards.

Van Rees' work explores the relationship between photography, architecture, abstraction, and perception. By transforming simple materials into immersive spatial compositions, he challenges the viewer's understanding of depth, scale, and reality.

Hahnemuhle, framed in black, museumglass

From the series Fragments of Clarity

The word ‘reflecting’ carries dual meanings; it can refer to an actual reflection - seeing an image mirrored in a glossy surface like glass - or it can describe the process of deep, thoughtful contemplation.

The photographic series ‘Fragments of Clarity’ by Sophie de Vos explores this duality, moving between the literal and metaphorical aspects of reflection. In most works, Sophie uses glass as a physical and conceptual layer over her subjects, creating subtle distortions that question how we perceive the world. When we look at something, are we truly seeing it as it is, or through the lens of our own experiences, memories, and emotions?

In the work ‘What Lingers After’, this approach shifts. Instead of glass, Sophie uses a photographic intervention, where movement and time become the material of distortion. Here, perception is not refracted by a physical surface, but shaped by duration and what remains after the moment has passed.

From the series Fragments of Clarity

The word ‘reflecting’ carries dual meanings; it can refer to an actual reflection - seeing an image mirrored in a glossy surface like glass - or it can describe the process of deep, thoughtful contemplation. 

This photographic series by Sophie de Vos intertwines both interpretations, exploring the intersection between the literal and metaphorical aspects of reflection. In this series, Sophie incorporates glass as a physical and conceptual layer over her subjects, manipulating its positioning to create dynamic visual distortions. By alternating and playing with these layers, she raises profound questions about perception: When we look at something, are we truly seeing it as it is, or are we viewing it through the complex prism of our own experiences, biases, and emotions? Sophie challenges the viewer to consider the nature of clarity itself, suggesting that true understanding may be filtered and refracted by the lenses through which we observe the world.

Through this blending of visual and philosophical reflection, the series becomes not just a study of surfaces and subjects, but a deeper inquiry into the limits of perception and understanding.

Pigment ink on bright white Photorag mounted on museum board, framed with spacer and UV70 museum glass

This work is part of the series Painted Room

In Painted Room, Jan Theun van Rees constructs a temporary, immersive space using layered materials and painted surfaces, brought together through carefully controlled light. Soft textiles in shifting tones of blue, pink and grey create a spatial composition that feels both architectural and atmospheric. The interplay between shadow and colour blurs the line between physical structure and illusion, inviting the viewer to question depth, perspective and material reality.

This work is part of Van Rees’ ongoing exploration of spatial perception in contemporary photography, where constructed environments become the subject. Through subtle variations in light and surface, Painted Room offers a quiet, contemplative image that evolves with prolonged viewing.
