Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination.Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architectura, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, boides of water, light and shadows. Select only thins to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic.
Authenticityy is invaluable; originality is non-existent.
And don’t bother concealing your thievery-celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remenber what Jean-luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from- It’s where you take them”.
Jim Jarmusch
