This phrase by Paul Klee encapsulates part of his poetry and is translated visually in the style of graffiti the artist uses in the painting "Fish Magic" of 1925.
The painting's surface is dark and a formless background, as it was prior to the birth and explosion of life which was the Big Bang: in the beginning was darkness. The darkness is the product that is the subconscious, which lies under the appearance of things, and even us, difficult to detect and comprehend, and appears to be a mystery. Being aware of our unconscious, just like the mysteries of life is a difficult, but not impossible job, a heroic challenge that many of us are not prepared to undertake. Mirror in the wall, what are the pieces of my life?
The light of the moon shines in the darkness
Klee's magical fish don't claim to be true, but only light that illuminates the darkness. They reside in the dark, and are creatures of the unconscious. The artist is able to scratch his or her way across the subconscious as well as the canvas, underneath which are hidden, but vibrant images, characters, colours, plants and shapes. paul klee of this process is vital and healing, showing that, deep in the depths of the sea and the darkness of ignorance, there are small shimmering animals that stir the waters and follow the currents. Fish are dreams, stories and stories flashes of ideas and ideals, nocturnal dreams emerging from the darkness. They are games that wallow in the chaos of the world and are vivid fantasy, childlike, and impulsive that consciously or unconsciously guide the actions and hopes of people.
Rare and valuable fish
Are these fishes real or not? To these exotic and esoteric life forms?
The fundamental reason for these signs is that fish do not want to be believed. Their existence isn't
is determined by the external approval. We believe that we see and control everything, that we have the full image of everything however, deep in the ocean, in the subconscious and the previous years of existence, there are in the midst of the complexities and random events that we are in the dark: fish that are not seen that are rare and valuable animals. You think you know every inch of who you are, but you don't realize that within the most secret and inseparable part inside you, a fish that wags its tail and that, although it is hidden into a place that is not accessible to the brain the fish releases the sensation of jelly and thoughts that are visceral. It is then easy to forget that distant dream, remained the child's innocence and was locked away in a bubblethat was nothing more than a aquarium of the fish and the dream lies there, a fish viper that turns and spins in the sphere, and then it shows its teeth. However, you can see only its glistening, unformed form since you've pulled away the shutter, and the you are in a dark space.
Accustoming to the senses
Just when everything is quiet and dark, however, it is easier to detect light, sense movements, hear the sound of rustling You just need to adjust your perception to being in darkness. It takes a while and can be a bit annoying at first because you have the impression of being blind, but once you are comfortable with it, you will be able to get through the darkness and even feed on it. Bubbles glisten, scales sparkle transparently, nothing is really crystal clear, but the whole seems complete: an accurate image that you can scratch slightly more in the event that we're alive and choose to know ourselves a little more.
Watching them to swim
What to do with these fish? Should we fish them and bring them up to the surface or keep them at sea? Surely it is important to preserve their wildness and uniqueness rather than forcing them into sunlit aquariums by the sun, or use them as the primary course in the lunch of logic. Precisely in their nature bizarre, ugly and irrational nature lies their power , and the way we can utilize them to discover our true the essence of our. The fish must be watched and let ourselves be hypnotised by their regular and constant swimming. It's A meditation, a continuous repetition that allows you to discover something more about them every turn. We have to observe the flashes of light that flash before us and then fade away as they are a series of lights that briefly illuminate the darkness of our being. They are a means to peek deep into the darkness of being.
Ocean currents
The fish aren't immobile and swim between me and you and vice versa; they have discovered a collective current, which roughly passes us all through and connects common ideas and beliefs. Fish know who you are, but do not consider you a threat and do not want limits to define them. They are at home in darkness but they're not afraid of occasionally being fished out and seeing their soul shine through like a bolt of lightning, similar to an eureka, like a ray of energy that travels up the spine before exploding into the brain. It's like the electric current that swims along the cables of light. The fish are like that, bobbing, swimming with their rhythm The vast ocean is their home , and they're not scared of the absence of walls and limits. It can be in the vastness the world that they can experience the joy of being there now and not later as well as the freedom to travel forever, conscious that they will always find their way back because in the oceans of the unconscious the voyage is circular.
