"Art doesn't reproduce what is visible, it transforms what isn't always evident."
This line from Paul Klee encapsulates part of his poetics and translates aesthetically into the graffiti technique the artist employs in his 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. at the beginning, there was darkness. This darkness is the stuff of the unconscious, hidden beneath the surface 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 life, is an arduous if not impossible job an arduous task not all of us are willing to take on.

The light of the moon shines in the darkness
Klee's magic fish do not claim to be true, but only light that illuminates the darkness. They reside in the dark, creatures of the subconscious. The artist scratches his or her way across the subconscious and the canvas beneath lie hidden but vivid images, characters, colours, plants, shapes and visions. The significance of this process is vital and healing and demonstrates how, within the depths of the sea and dark insanity, there are tiny shimmering creatures that stir the water as they follow currents. Fish are dreams, stories and stories flashes of ideas and ideals, nocturnal dreams emerging from the darkness. They are games that slumber in the density of existence and are vivid childhood fantasies, impulsive thoughts that, whether consciously or not, guide people's dreams and actions.
Rare and precious fish
Are these fishes real or not? In these exotic and esoteric life forms?
The crux of these manifestations is that fish don't care to be believed; Their existence isn't
is determined by external acceptance. We think that we can see and have control over every aspect of our lives, and that we have the complete view of the world but in the depths of the ocean, in the unconscious and the past decades of our lives, are the essences and the random events that we are ignorant: unnoticed fish as well as rare and precious creatures. You think you know all that you are, but you don't realize that there is, in the most obscure and inseparable portion inside you, a snail fish with a tail that wags and that, although it is kept into a place that is not accessible to the intellect it lets out the sensation of jelly and thoughts that are visceral. You forget, then, that distant dream, remained as a child and encased in a bubblethat was nothing but a dish of fish. And it is there,
jacobs-malling.blogbright.net a fish viper that turns and spins in the sphere, and then it shows its teeth; you perceive the gleams of its formless reflections because you've slid down the shutter and you are in a dark room.
Afquainting to the senses
In the quiet and dark However, it's easier to detect light, sense movements, hear the sound of rustling It's just a matter of having to adapt your senses to darkness. It takes time and it can be frustrating at first because you have the impression of being blind. However, once you become used to it, you can really be able to see through the darkness, you can even feed off it. Scales shimmer, bubbles bubble transparently, nothing is really transparent, but it all seems to be complete, a precise picture that you could scratch slightly more so long as you're alive and want to understand ourselves a bit more.
Watching them to swim
What to do with the fish? Do we need to fish them and bring them up to the surface or keep them to lie in the ocean floor? It is surely important to preserve their wildness and uniqueness and not force them into sunlit aquariums under the sun or serve them as the principal course during the lunch of logic. In their bizarre, ugly and irrational nature lies their strength and the ability to understand our own nature. The fish must be watched, allowing ourselves to be seduced by their frequent and constant swimming. It's an act of meditation, a constant repetition that lets one discover something more about them in every second. It is important to be aware of the flashes of light that flash before us and then fade away because they are intermittent lights that briefly illuminate our darkest parts. They can be used to peek into the dark corners of our existence.
Currents in the ocean
The fish aren't stationary and swim from me to you and vice versa. They have even found a collective flow that passes us all through and connects our common ideas and beliefs. The fish know you however they do not consider you a threat and do not want boundaries to delimit them. Darkness is their home however they are not afraid of sometimes being caught 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 into the brain. It's like the electric flow of the current that flows through the light cables. The fish are similar to the fish that swim, bobbing, dancing in their flow The vast ocean is their home and they are not afraid of the lack of walls or limits. In fact, it happens in the space of the globe that they will feel the freedom of being there today and not tomorrow, of being able to roam forever, knowing it is always possible to be able to return as in the waters of the unconscious the voyage is circular.
