In Episode 27 we look into the world of kitsch art and its controversial place in the creative landscape. We explore the definition of kitsch, highlighting famous examples and the cultural implications of labeling something as "kitsch." Reflecting on Angies own experience of failing art school much like Pam from "The Office," share how it was humiliating when a beloved artist's work was dismissed as kitsch, questioning what qualifies as art. We also discuss the commercialization of kitsch by big companies like Disney, especially with their recent offerings at D23, and how this trend affects the art world. As artists, there’s an inherent longing to create something meaningful, yet so often, this creative drive is stifled by what is cheaper and easier to produce on a mass scale. Let's keep the spirit of true artistry alive by championing those who dare to create from the heart. Episode 27 Challenge: Go support a local artist, restaurant or business. Support those around you that create.
