Creation

“The old is dead, and I don’t know what the new is. The only way to find the new is to start different things and see if there’s something that can come out of experimentation. It’s somewhat unsettling, but it’s a hopeful thing in a way. I’ve been here, lots of times.”

-David Lynch

I call [the first steps of a creative act] scratching. You know how you scratch at a lottery ticket to see if you’ve won? That’s what I’m doing when I begin a piece…

Scratching takes many shapes. A fashion designer is scratching when he visits vintage clothes stores, studies music videos…the act of changing your environment is the scratch.
