KITSCH

WHAT IS KITSCH???
according to my research, kitsch is something that imitate or a pirated copy of an existing artwork or existing style in a very 'tasteless' way. For example, editing Mona Lisa portrait by changing her facial expression and applying different of colors in order to make the artwork looks amusing and hilarious; replacing those politicians or celebrities with some animals in the artwork to insult their characteristics or personality. 


In my own opinion, i  actually think that Kitsch somehow can be very interesting and creative because when we are 'skitching' those famous artworks or styles, we are actually presenting the artwork in a more informal and casual way for peoples to accept it. But, while we are doing those Kitschy works, we definitely have to show some respects to the original artworks or the characters. To make those artworks more easier for people to accept doesn't mean that we can humiliate or make fun of those works. We still need to stick with the true meanings of the artwork.


Here are some of the examples of KITSCH
