„Art does not reproduce what is visible, it creates visible what is not always apparent.“ The phrase of Paul Klee encapsulates part of his poetics and translates aesthetically into the graffiti technique that the artist employs in his painting „Fish Magic“ from 1925.

The canvas is dark, a formless background; as prior to the birth and explosion of life, which was the big bang: in the beginning was darkness. This darkness is the result from the unconscious. It is hidden behind the appearance of things, and of us, difficult to detect and comprehend, and appears to be a true mystery. Being aware of our unconscious, just like the mysteries of our existence is a difficult, but not impossible job and a gruelling task that isn't everyone willing to take on. Mirror or mirror on the wall What are the elements of my whole?

Shining in the dark Klee's magic fish do not claim to be true, but only light that illuminates darkness. They reside in the dark, and are creatures of the subconscious. The artist scratches his or her way across the subconscious as well as the canvas, underneath which lie hidden but vivid images, characters, colours, plants, shapes and controlc.com visions. The purpose of this procedure is vital and salvific, showing that, deep in the depths of the sea and dark darkness, there are tiny sparkling creatures that stir the waters and follow the currents. Fish are dreams, stories and stories flashes of ideas and visions, dreams that come out of the night. from the dark night. These are games that drown in the density of existence and are vivid fantasy, childlike, and impulsive that subconsciously or consciously steer people's hopes and actions.

Rare and precious fish Are these fishes real or not? Are they esoteric and exotic life forms?

The fundamental reason for these signs is that fish don't believe in their existence; their existence is not

is determined by external acceptance. We think that we can see and have control over all things, that we are in control of the whole view of the world but in the depths of the sea, the unconscious and the past centuries of life, lie the essences and the random events of which we are completely ignorant: unnoticed fish as well as rare and precious creatures. You believe that you are aware of every inch of who you are, but forget that in the most hidden and inseparable portion inside you, a fish with a tail that wags and that, although it is hidden to a space that is unaccessible by the intellect the fish releases jelly and visceral thoughts. It is then easy to forget that dream that was a distant memory, that was childhood and locked in a bubblethat was nothing but the dish of fish. the vision is in there, a viper of a fish which turns and turns within the sphere, and then it shows its teeth. However, you can see only its shapeless gleams, because you've slid off the shutter and you are in a dark room.

Afquainting the senses Just when everything is quiet and dark but it's easier to detect light, sense movement, hear rustling noises; you just have to adapt your senses to being in darkness. It can take a while, and it can be frustrating at first because you have the impression that you're blind. However, once you become used to it, you will be able to overcome the darkness and even feed off it. Scales shimmer, bubbles bubble in transparent ways, but nothing really is transparent, but it all seems complete: an accurate image that you can scratch just a bit more as long as we are alive and decide we want to know ourselves a little more.

Watching them as they swim What to do with these fish? Should we take them to the fishery and bring them up to the surface, or let them remain to lie in the ocean floor? Isn't it crucial to preserve their wildness and strangeness rather than forcing them into aquariums with sunlit lights by the sun, or use them as the primary meal during lunchtime logic. Because in their very nature, bizarre, ugly and irrational nature lies their power , and the way we can utilize them to clarify our the essence of our. Fish must be observed by allowing ourselves to be seduced by their frequent and constant swimming. It's a meditation, a continuous repetition that lets one find out more about them every second. We must be attentive to the flashes of light that flash across the screen and quickly disappear since they are light sources that flash intermittently that momentarily illuminate the dark parts of us. They are a means to peek into the darkest corners of our being.

Ocean Currents The fish aren't stationary and move from me to you and vice versa. They have discovered a collective flow that passes all of us and connects our common opinions and ideas. Fish know who you are, but do not evaluate you, and thus do not need borders to limit them. The dark is their home but they're not afraid of sometimes being caught and having their essence shine through like a bolt of lightning, like a eureka, like a ray of energy that travels up the spine and explodes in the brain, similar to the electrical flow of current that swims through the light cables. The fish are like that, bobbing, swimming with their rhythm The vast ocean is their sanctuary and they don't fear the absence of walls and boundaries. It can be in the vastness the globe that they best feel the freedom of being able to be present today, not in the future, of being able to travel forever, conscious that they will always return because in the oceans of the unconscious, the voyage is circular.
