Indianisch 1937

Paul Klee made this work, Indianisch, with pastel, laid down in blocks of colour, a playful negotiation of colour and form. The surface has a grainy texture, a tangible physicality. Look closely, and you'll see the marks, the subtle shifts in pressure as Klee layered the pastel. It's like he's building a puzzle, fitting shapes together, letting the colours vibrate against each other. See that bold stroke of green? It anchors the whole composition, a grounding force amidst the playful abstraction. Klee reminds me of Joan Miró, both of them dancing on the edge of abstraction, creating their own visual languages. Like them, I believe art isn't about answers; it's about sparking questions, about embracing the beautiful ambiguity of the world.
