Composed in the artist's characteristically grey-scale palette, Moon Schmooze exemplifies Amy Feldman’s most recent body of work, throughout which the artist evokes subtle, complex spaces through a combination of techniques and textures. Atop a monochrome base, a silk-screened motif echoes the artist’s typically confident execution of a premeditated, but loose gesture. The implied distance between the silk-screened image and the artist’s brushwork is ambiguous, seeming to expand and contract throughout the composition. A third texture, Feldman’s selective placement of impasto daubs, nearly inverts foreground and background, further complicating the painting’s charged pictorial space.
