Keren's subject matter ranges from "a moment caught, a person in certain position." She can be motivated to create a specific piece by the medium itself. Specific colors, such as orange or olive green, can arouse her creativity. Keren's love of color is evident and she expresses herself in hot, spicy or cool colors. A juxtaposition of the unexpected produces dramatic composition with a strong narrative, sometimes subliminal, sometimes overt and obvious. Keren's works depict dreams and journeys, moments seen and caught, sometimes struggling to emerge. She often revisits themes through further drawings and paintings. | Keren's subject matter ranges from "a moment caught, a person in certain position."
