#catchingideas

David Lynch, the surrealist filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist, often describes creativity as a process of deep inner exploration—like fishing in the subconscious. This quote reflects his belief that ideas are living entities, and catching even a small one can spark joy, momentum, and artistic transformation. For Lynch, falling in love with an idea means entering a state of flow where intuition guides the work, whether it's a film, painting, or soundscape. He sees such moments not just as creative breakthroughs, but as spiritual gifts—proof that the mysterious depths of the mind are always offering something beautiful.
