I mean basically don't spell it out directly, show the themes by the actions of the characters and events, but if you just spell it out it will just come of as preachy. You can have the occasional conversation exploring the themes but if every one of them is like that people are not going to get gripped. It's doesn't have to be overly artsy but a good writer weaves the themes into a sequence of events and makes it seem natural. Just giving you a friendly reminder, although I think I'm probably guilty of this myself...
