„Art is not a reproduction of what is visible, it makes visible what is not always evident.“ This phrase by Paul Klee encapsulates part of his poetry, and is translated to the technique of graffiti that the artist uses in the painting „Fish Magic“ of 1925.

The painting's surface is dark, an unformed background; as before the creation and explosion of life that 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 even of ourselves which is hard to see and comprehend, and appears to be a true mystery. Knowing our unconscious, like the secrets of existence is a challenging, but not impossible task, a heroic challenge that isn't everyone willing to take on. Mirror in the wall What are the elements of my whole?

Shining in the dark Klee's magical fish don't claim to be real, they are they are only light that illuminates darkness. They reside in the dark, and are creatures of the subconscious. The artist works on into the surface of unconscious as well as the canvas, underneath which are hidden, but vibrant figures, plants, colours forms and images. The purpose of this procedure is vital and salvific by revealing how, within the depths of the sea and the darkness of darkness, there are tiny shimmering animals which stir the waters and follow the currents. Fish are desires, stories and stories flashes of ideas and visions, dreams that come out of the night. from the darkness. They are games that wallow in the midst of life and are vivid childhood fantasies, impulsive thoughts that, whether consciously or not, guide people's hopes and actions.

Rare and precious fish Are these fishes true or not? In these exotic and esoteric life forms?

The crux of these manifestations is that fish don't believe in their existence; their existence is not

is determined by the external approval. We think that we can see and manage everything, that we have the complete picture of things but in the depths of the ocean, in the unconscious , and the past years of existence, there are the essences and the coincidences of which we are in the dark: fish that are not seen, rare and https://www.theversed.com/members/peacelentil86/activity/2640940/ precious animals. You believe that you are aware of every inch of who you are but you forget that there is, in the most obscure and inseparable part of you, a fish that wags its tail and, even though it is relegated down into a place that is not accessible to the intellect, it releases the sensation of jelly and thoughts that are visceral. Then, you forget the distant vision that remained in the child's innocence and was locked away within a bubble. It was nothing more than a bowl of a fish. And the dream lies there, a fish viper that turns and spins in the sphere and now it shows its teeth. You see only its shapeless gleams, because you have pulled away the shutter, and the it is dark in the space.

Afquainting to the senses Just when everything is quiet and dark However, it's easier to see light, perceive motion, and hear rustling sounds You just need to adapt your senses to being in darkness. It takes a while and it is annoying initially because you get the impression that you are blind; but when you are familiar with it, you can really overcome the darkness, you can even feed off it. Bubbles glisten, scales sparkle in transparent ways, but nothing really is clear, but everything actually seems complete: an accurate picture that can be scratched slightly more in the event that we're alive and decide we want to know ourselves a little more.

Watching them to swim What do we do with these fish? Do we need to fish them and bring them up to the surface or keep them to lie in the ocean floor? Isn't it crucial to preserve their wildness and strangeness and not force them into aquariums with sunlit lights by the sun, or serve them as the principal meal during lunchtime logic. In their bizarre, ugly and irrational nature lies their power and the key we can use to understand our own essence. Fish must be observed by allowing ourselves to be seduced by their frequent and endless swimming. This is an act of meditation, a constant repetition that lets one find out more about them in every turn. We have to observe the flashes of light that flash in front of us and quickly disappear as they are a series of lights that briefly illuminate our darkest parts. They allow us to look into the darkest corners of our being.

Ocean currents The fish aren't stationary and can swim from me to you and vice versa; they have even found a collective current, which roughly passes us all through and connects common ideas and beliefs. The fish know you but they don't judge you and therefore do not need borders to limit them. They are at home in darkness, although they don't mind occasionally being fished out and seeing their soul shine through like a bolt of lightning, similar to an eureka or ray of energy that travels along the spine and explodes in the brain, similar to the electric current that swims along the cables of light. The fish are like that, swimming, bobbing and bouncing in their flow The ocean is their home , and they don't fear the lack of walls or borders. It can be in the vastness the world that they can experience the joy of being there today and not tomorrow and being able to travel forever, conscious of the fact that in all times, they'll be able to return since in the waters of the unconscious the journey is circular.
