According to Kit White, "Once a work of art leaves the studio and arrives in the larger world, your sincerity is a weak predictor of the work's success. Outside of the studio, your work must stand on its own and reveal itself without you being present to defend or explain it." I would agree with this statement. I have been asked what my artwork is about or it's meaning and usually I reply, "What does it mean to you?" This often frustrates the person who wants me to define the artwork. Sometimes I give in, but often not. Art communicates, whether we like it or not, even with the artist's best intentions of creating art that communicates a certain thing, people will often see something in it that the artist never intended. So look at art and you decide what is means to you. Enjoy!
