In the spirit of better explaining ‘Camp’ in advance of Monday night’s Met Gala and the unveiling of the Gucci-sponsored exhibit ‘Camp: Notes on Fashion’, AOC did a little searching on Carlijn Jacobs and her 2014 VICE article: Photographer Carlijn Jacobs Is Reinventing Camp’.

VICE queried Jacobs about her photo series. Resisting an interview, Carlijn Jacobs initially responded with two quotes from Susan Sontag’s famous 1964 essay ‘Notes On Camp’.
“To talk about it, is to betray it.”
“It's good because it's awful.”

Unthwarted, VICE followed up: Why did you try to explain your work through those quotes?
Carlijn Jacobs: Camp is a cultural expression where the most important thing is embracing the irony of popular culture. You'll see things that are seen as low culture and appreciate them, even if you know that doesn’t fit in with what's popular culturally. I think the psychological ideas behind high and low culture are very interesting. I actually made a Notes On Camp for 2014. In 1964, people already spoke comprehensively about camp, while the internet and the Tumblr generation aesthetics that stemmed from it were still very far away. That’s why I found it interesting to put my thoughts down about camp in 2014.

VICE: Is this a weakness of the high culture – that they're losing their own identity?
Carlijn Jacobs: More or less. It may also mean that you don’t dare to stand up for something you find interesting or beautiful because it wouldn’t fit your "standing". You could compare this with sweet white wine, which by the experts is often seen as a sign of underdeveloped taste, and people are to embarrassed to order it. Yet secretly everyone enjoys it.
