A great way to decipher an artist's type is through wether they are an Fe user or an Fi user, as this becomes very apparent in the type of art they produce. The focus of an Fi user's art is intrapersonal and very specific to them as a person. Fi dom artists are usually found delving into their own personal demons in order to produce what they consider to be great. Take Ingmar Bergman, Vincent Van Gogh or Fiona Apple for instance, their art is so unique to their intrapersonal visions. And this isn't to say that this cannot resonate with others or that an Fe user's art has no uniqueness to it, it's just to say it comes from a specific place that exists within the artist's mind. An Fe user's art is interpersonal. It draws on the collective and the shared pain and anguish we experience as a whole. Take Michael Gira, Fyodor Dostoevsky or H.P. Lovecraft for this example. Their work is focused on the world outside of their minds that invades them in this form of collective anguish. Whereas Phil Elverum will write about the touchingly painful moments he experienced first hand that translates into great lyricism, Kendrick Lamar will write, (maybe with the exception of his recent album), from the perspective of a collective unconscious that's channeling the interpersonal that's personal to him. An Fi artist will use symbolism and an Fe user will use metaphor usually. Villeneuve's work just doesn't seem to be personal to him whatsoever. We don't really get a hint of who he is as a person because it isn't reflected in his work, as opposed to Wes Anderson for instance. Films like Sicario, Prisoners and Arrival are entirely interpersonal in their themes and therefore I'd pin Dennis Villeneuve as an Fe user and most likely an INFJ considering the massive use of Ni in his movies.
