do we have only universal images in our heads, or can we create images ? or both ?
can we really invent something new ? aren’t we just recycling what we see, hear, taste, feel, which is to some extent, what other people can see, hear, or feel, and mainly what other people have already seen, heard, or felt ?
is originality still possible ? does pure invention exist ?
are we all copying from each other, adding and substracting subtle elements to make something our own ?
do we have the right to ask for recognition then ? do we even have the right to show it, to share it ? and furthermore, can we claim it as our own ?
where’s the point where influence begins, where’s the point when it’s not just strong influences anymore ?
can we be only inspired by something, and not try to reproduce it ?
is it dishonest to hide our points of origin ?
can we still be innovative, creative, in the pure sense ?

if i’m looking at a picture and i get that strange feeling that it looks too damn close to one of my own,
