Luis Feito made this painting, titled "165", with oils and a real sense of drama! The way Feito builds up the paint is really something, isn’t it? Look at how the thick white impasto contrasts with the thin washes of grays and browns. It’s like he’s sculpting with the paint, creating a real sense of depth and texture. In the upper left, there's this luminous cloud, all soft and diffused, that seems to be emerging from the darkness. Then your eye travels down to this craggy, textured mass, built up with globs of white and dark paint. It’s almost like looking at a landscape at night. The physicality of the paint really amplifies the emotional impact of the piece. It’s not just an image; it’s an experience. Feito reminds me of Antoni Tàpies, who was also working with texture and materiality in really interesting ways. It’s all part of that conversation about what painting can be.
