The director has made a career out of leaning into the world’s discomfort, or at least of exposing it.
Billy Did Find Sally in the TreeThe work seems to show Billy, a character who appears in other Lynch paintings, carrying a knife as he approaches a tree where a girl, presumably Sally, hangs from a branch. The exhibition’s eponymous painting,, finds a red-clad character stuck in a thick, dark glop suspended over jagged peaks—which, pick your metaphor. Lynch rarely if ever explains his work, leaving his audience to extrapolate what they will.
Perhaps his demeanor is, at least in part, thanks to Lynch’s other passion: Transcendental Meditation. Lynch has spoken often about its wide-ranging benefits, andis to spread the practice in order to prevent and eliminate stress and trauma among at-risk populations. “Meditation, throughout the long corridor of time, was to experience the treasury within each one of us human beings,” Lynch tells me—a way of tapping into our highest potential, of finding the creativity, intellect, curiosity, and pure goodness buried in our souls.
With a dedicated meditation practice, Lynch says, “You feel like life is more like a game than a torment. And when you start expanding these positive qualities, the side effect is negativity starts to lift away. So people who are transcending every day, they see stress, traumatic stress, anxieties, tension, sadness, depression, all this family of negativity, hate, anger, and fear, start to—automatically, without trying—evaporate.
Maybe it’s this expanded consciousness that helps us square the “super duper” with the super dark. Lynch sees that one doesn’t exist without the other. The world is both: sharp edges and soft clouds. Sunny Missoula and gritty Philadelphia. But we can channel the good, beat back the bad, and open ourselves up to the boundless expanse.
