Theen's photos strike me as unique and interesting because they show how various objects, patterns or backgrounds previously unrelated to each other can be brought together with a shift in focus, or from a different POV. Her resulting compositions come together seamlessly in a new way.Other than that, her work really needs to be seen for yourself. Trying to put my impressions and description into words regarding her creativity is not only difficult for me, but also falls short of what is truly achieved by her talent.

Theen takes pictures in a clever way: She knows the perfect mixture of the clarity of an abstract picture and the charms of selective fokus, shades and light. The harmony gets often underlined by the repeated patterns. Theen transfers objects of trivial urban places into pictures full of tension and perfect h… Read more

Theen takes pictures in a clever way: She knows the perfect mixture of the clarity of an abstract picture and the charms of selective fokus, shades and light. The harmony gets often underlined by the repeated patterns. Theen transfers objects of trivial urban places into pictures full of tension and perfect harmony - all in one, in one single shot! Theen plays with foreground / background in such a special style that one might think of layers like in flat design - and still, there is clearly a selective focus seen. Theen's work looks even more interesting due to the colour contrasts (like red/green) as well as the created tension between living (plant, animal) and surrounding constructions. Theen's photostream shows us all those daily banalities in direct relationship with their background ... in such an uncommon and cleaver way, that I usually do not find words to comment them :) So, I say it in one sentence for the whole photostream: Thanks for sharing your way to look at objects, Theen!

Trying not to appear to be in any way patronising, I have watched Theen's growth as a photographer and in particular her ability to make the mundane look interesting and sometimes spectacular. Her desire to take pictures from really close to the subject image has been particularly successful; this in turn has led to her having really great success in the use of Depth of Field, something that she excels in over many others. I hope I shall be watching her ever-increasing talent for many years to come.
