Hey, Whose work are you looking at?
嘿！你在看谁的作品？ |
| Steven: |
PICA-SSO’s. But I hate him.

Cuz he makes me look like stupid. I don’t even have an idea about what he wanted to convey by the works.
因为他的作品总是使我看起来很蠢。我甚至对他想通过作品表达的思想一无所知。 |

Well, it took me quite a long time to understand the meaning of the painting by him.
嗯，我也是花了好了长时间才明白他作品的含义的。 |
| Steven: |
But I don’t even understand a single work of his. Does than mean I don’t have a taste for art?
但是，他的一部作品我都看不懂。这是不是说明我没有艺术品位？ |
