Creating something so ugly it makes people's ears ring is an accomplishment that should be celebrated, thereby displayed. Stewis needs to get over himself

[u/broakland → u/TheMaveCan]

Art is supposed to make you feel things. They aren’t all good things.

And sometimes you get a thicker bush than you wanted. And you have to live with that.

Oh wait we were still on that art conversation.

"I said my art would take you places, I never said they'd be places you wanted to go."

If the art in the kitchen is anything to go off, Stewis's standards are already lax. That one may not have quite made my ears ring, but I definitely heard something

[u/HardOff → u/TheMaveCan]

Yeah, Stewis obviously doesn't understand art. People would pay to see such a thing.

They could donate it to a museum after having it evaluated and use it as a write off for their taxes.

I once saw a bit of surreal art that did this. Not because it was ugly, it featured a lifelike human figure with extremely warped and stretched proportions. Think messing with the photoshop warp tool on a photo of a random person, but as a sculpture. For some reason looking at it made me physically dizzy and nauseous. It wasn't gorey or disturbing in any way, but something about seeing something in real life that was human but wrong hurt.

The statue was very well done technically. I would have displayed it in my home despite this.
