Have i mentioned how much I Love David Lynch? Probably.
Recently I bought Twin Peaks: Fire walk with me.
I watched it with my husband, and hes not too much of a Lynch fan, some of it he shakes his head at.
I understand his ideas can come off too artsy fartsy, but to me Lynch is nothing but sincere and in no way contrived.
His works all feel pure and honest. Its the kind of art you can feel, and it makes you want to know more.
I like art that needs no explanation in order for you to like what your looking at.
Not saying it has to be easy, but if you cant feel something, then whats the point.
some of his paintings
"boy lights fire"
"This Man Was Shot"
"Rat Meat Bird"
this piece David took a piece of meat and left it outside so maggots and bugs will invade it. Then placed it on a canvas, with a dead rat. Why do I like this? Maybe I feel David can do no wrong in art. Whatever.
David was a painter first, but wanted his works to "move", so he got into film making
ever seen this?
this is one of his first films.
It was inspired by his wife's niece, who one night in her sleep kept reciting the alphabet in a "tormented" way.
In a way its how I see his work, dream like. Why did his niece do this in her sleep? Who knows, but its those subconscious things that arise in his work, pure and straight from the source.
anyway, Im pretty excited to start work on my first Lynch tribute piece.
