“Ideas are like fish. If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you’ve got to go deeper. Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure. They’re huge and abstract. And they’re very beautiful.” David Lynch is a prolific and unique filmmaker, famous for his surrealist "Lynchian" style, but beyond film, Lynch has explored painting, sculpture, photography and music, delving into dreamlike realities inspired by surrealism. His work delves deep into the human psyche, probing a world of inner turmoil and exploration, like a hole in everyday life, often in idyllic 1950s America. Lynch's cinematic journey began when he created his debut feature, Eraserhead (1977), a masterpiece of black-and-white surreal horror. But his consecration came with the multi-award-winning The Elephant Man (1980), followed by his classics with their undeniable dreamlike but also violent atmospheres, such as Blue Velvet (1986), Wild at Heart (1990), Lost Highway (1997) and Mulholland Dr. (2001). As in his famous and celebrated TV series "Twin Peaks" (1990), Lynch appears as an improbable author who blurs the boundaries between reality and desire by showing their hidden corruption, repressed drives, nightmares and fantasies. His cinema transcends genres, infusing classic thrillers and melodramas with an unsettling, dark and enigmatic charm.
