Bold, bright, and unapologetically playful—that’s the magic of kitsch! Dive into a world of exaggerated colours, quirky imagery, and over-the-top charm, where the everyday transforms into extraordinary art. From nostalgic motifs to humorous juxtapositions, kitsch celebrates the bold, the unexpected, and the joyfully unconventional.
Let’s break the rules! Whether you’re painting a flamingo in a tuxedo, a glittering teacup spaceship, or an ornate, extravagant scene, this module invites you to embrace creative freedom. It’s about exploring the beauty of imperfection, exaggeration, and unfiltered imagination.
In this journey through kitsch, you’ll learn to create vibrant compositions that balance humour with creativity. With bold palettes, quirky patterns, and imaginative designs, you’ll uncover how kitsch uses irony and sentimentality to tell stories, evoke emotions, and remind us that art can be as fun as it is meaningful.
