Wassily Kandinsky made this painting, Geflecht, with oil on canvas, and it's like looking into a playful puzzle of floating shapes. I can imagine Kandinsky in his studio, shuffling forms around, trying this and that, until they settle into an unexpected harmony. Look how he's built it up with layers of colour, line, and shape—it's like he's weaving a visual tapestry. The surface feels alive, like it's still in the process of becoming. The paint isn't trying to trick you into thinking it’s something else. The dark lines and geometric shapes remind me of Paul Klee's childlike sensibility, while the overall composition has echoes of Joan Miró’s biomorphic forms. Artists riff off each other, you know? It is one big conversation. Ultimately, this painting is not about answers but about the joy of asking questions and finding new ways of seeing.
