For me, true kitsch has nothing to do with irony. It's very honest. It represents what people like, their dreams.

Whether it is a garden gnome, the sound of Bing Crosby launching into 'White Christmas', the blinking innocent eyes of Bambi or the words of Patience Strong, the kitsch phenomenon is there as strong and recognisable as your mother's face. You seldom if ever have the question, whether this is kitsch or not. If you think it might be, then it is.

True art is thoughtful, emotional examination of how human themes impact the overall experience of existing. The rest is kitsch.

...I wondered if it was blasphemous to tell God that rainbows are kitsch.
