Oleg Holosiy made "Orange madmen in green rooms" without providing a date, using oil on canvas. The color is kind of muted, like it’s been sitting in the attic for a while, you know? It reminds me that art is as much about process as it is about the final product. The texture is really interesting. Up close, you can see these thick brushstrokes. It feels like Holosiy was really wrestling with the paint, pushing it around to create these figures. Look at the way the madmen emerge from the green, almost like they're trying to escape. The way the orange contrasts with the green is kind of jarring, like a visual alarm bell, and that connects with the way that Francis Bacon used colour. It feels like I am seeing something deeply personal. It's like Holosiy is saying something about being on the edge. It's a reminder that art is all about conversation, about sharing ideas, and about leaving space for ambiguity.
