Jan Theun’s perforated Space series shows a connection between interior spaces and the outside world; the known and the unknown; ourselves and our environment. This connection is emphasised through the material characteristics and spatial qualities. Using material rescued from waste containers, Jan Theun constructed spaces where he plays with the light that streams in through many different openings. The surroundings in the picture plane offer a passage to a new unfamiliar reality. In this way, Jan Theun draws attention to the interaction between spaces that are apparently separated by walls, but are nevertheless closely connected.
