“Art doesn’t reproduce what is visible. It transforms what isn’t always visible.”

The phrase of Paul Klee encapsulates part of his poetry and is translated visually in the style of graffiti that the artist employs in his painting “Fish Magic” of 1925.

The surface of the painting is dark, an unformed background, as it was before the creation and explosion of life that was the big bang: in the beginning was darkness. The darkness is the product of the unconscious, hidden behind the facade of things and even of ourselves which is hard to see and understand, which seems to be a real mystery. Being aware of our unconscious, just like the mysteries of our existence, is an arduous if not impossible feat an arduous task not all of us are prepared to undertake.

In the darkness, the light shines

Klee’s magic fish cannot claim to be true, but only light that illuminates the darkness. They are inhabitants of the dark, creatures of the subconscious. The artist works on his or her way across the subconscious and the canvas, beneath which lie hidden but vivid characters, plants, colours forms and images. The meaning of this technical process is vital and healing, showing how, within the depths of the ocean and in the dark insanity, there are tiny shimmering animals which stir the waters as they follow currents. Fish are desires, stories and tales, flashes of ideas and ideals, nocturnal dreams emerging from the darkness. These are games that drown in the chaos of the world They are vibrant childhood fantasies, impulsive thoughts that consciously or unconsciously guide the actions and hopes of people.

Rare and valuable fish

Are these fishes real or not? In these exotic and esoteric life forms?

The crux of these manifestations is that fish do not believe in their existence; their existence is not

is determined by external acceptance. We believe that we know and manage all things, that we are in control of the whole view of the world, but deep within the ocean, in the unconscious , and the past decades of our lives, are in the midst of the complexities and connections of which we are completely unaware: unseen fish as well as rare and precious creatures. You think you know all that you are but you forget that within the most secret and inseparable part inside you, a snail fish that is wags its tail and, even though it is kept to a space that is unaccessible by the mind it lets out the sensation of jelly and thoughts that are visceral. It is then easy to forget the distant vision that remained in childhood and locked within a bubble. It was nothing more than a aquarium of the fish and the vision is in there, a viper of a fish that turns and spins in the sphere and now and then shows its teeth. However, you can see only its shapeless gleams, because you have pulled down the shutter and you are in a dark room.

Afquainting the senses

When everything is still and quiet, however, it is easier to see light, perceive movement, hear rustling noises You just need to get your senses used to the darkness. It can take a while, and it is annoying at first because you have the impression that you’re blind; but when you become used to it, you can really overcome the darkness and even feed on the darkness. paul klee glisten, scales sparkle through the air, and nothing is transparent, but it all seems complete: an accurate picture that can be scratched a little more, still as long as we are alive and choose to get to know ourselves a bit more.

Watching them as they swim

What do we do with these fish? Should we take them to the fishery and bring them to the surface or leave them at sea? Isn’t it essential to protect their wildness and savagery, not to force them into sunlit aquariums under the sun, or serve them as the principal course during the lunch of logic. Precisely in Open Art Images , ugly, and bizarre nature lies their strength and the way we can utilize them to understand our own essence. The fish must be watched by allowing ourselves to be drawn into their routine and incessant swimming: A meditation, a continuous repetition that allows you to learn more about them every second. We must be attentive to the flashes of light that flash in front of us and disappear quickly because they are intermittent lights that momentarily illuminate the darkness of our being. They are a means to peek into the dark corners of being.

Ocean currents

The fish are not immobile and can swim from me to you and vice versa; they have discovered a common flow that passes everyone through and connects our common beliefs and thoughts. The fish know you but do not judge you and therefore don’t want borders to limit them. Darkness is their home, although they don’t mind sometimes being snagged and seeing their soul shine through like a bolt of lightning, or eureka or ray of energy that travels up the spine and explodes in the brain. It’s like the electric flow of the current that flows through the light cables. The fish are like the fish that swim, bobbing, dancing in their flow The ocean is their home , and they are not afraid of the absence of walls and borders. It happens in the space the globe that they will enjoy the feeling of being there today and not tomorrow as well as the freedom to roam forever, knowing it is always possible to find their way back as in the oceans of the unconscious the path is circular.
