7. I'd suggest that there's no more to be said than "this isn't my thing"

Art has always been a vehicle to express sociological, political and ideological beliefs since it's about communication.

Of one kind or other.

It's fine if you don't think the sculpture piece is for you, you've already noted it's "proficiently executed". I gather from that technically you don't have a problem with it, your problem is how the idea is communicated or maybe the idea itself. Maybe it's too political for you. I dunno.

But your dislike is only indicative of your preferences, and not a reflection of whether the piece, objectively, has artistic merit.
