Kitsch: craft so bad that it's good
Deadline for entry: March 28, 2021
Alberta Craft Feature Gallery - Edmonton exhibition dates: June 26 - October 16, 2021
Has the pandemic left you with the need for some comic relief? We invite craft artists working in all traditional and contemporary craft media to join in the fun and to submit your interpretations of kitsch craft.
We are seeking examples of kitsch craft that shares a knowing wink with the viewer. Craft that wears kitsch on its velour sleeve as a rhinestone badge of honour. Craft that’s appeal is found in its bad taste and ironic value.
Share a laugh with us as we prepare to deck the gallery with craft so gaudy, ostentatious, flashy, tacky, trite, sentimental, melodramatic, and overdone - it will take your breath away.
