Paul Klee’s Fish Magic (1925) is a dreamlike fusion of land, sea, and sky, where fish, stars, and mysterious figures drift in a twilight dance. Layered with watercolor, gouache, and ink on black canvas, the painting glows from within, as if lit by an inner world of imagination. Klee blends childlike wonder with symbolic depth, inviting viewers to explore the subconscious currents of his art. In the Slow Art format, each luminous detail surfaces gradually, offering a tranquil immersion into a universe both whimsical and profound.
