This work is part of the series Painted Room

In View 1, Jan Theun van Rees constructs a compact, enigmatic space where colour and form suggest more than they reveal. Dominated by deep red tones and punctuated by a single yellow accent, the composition centres around a closed, door-like shape, evoking a sense of tension, as if access is denied or postponed.

Part of the Painted Room series, this image captures a space that exists solely for the camera. It is not a record of reality, but a visual proposition: a space that teases the eye and mind with the suggestion of passage, yet keeps its interior sealed.

View 1 plays with perception, inviting contemplation of what remains hidden just behind the surface.
