It's the same with traditional artists as well. A lot of art in galleries made by "big name artists" is incredibly vapid and empty, and only appeals to equally vapid and empty people, they feature such concepts like "Too much social media bad" or "War bad" no nuance, understanding or subtlety, just simple, basic, easy to digest, unchallenging slop. The execution is usually good, because they are usually quite skilled in the technical part of art, but the actual "meaning" and "empathy" parts are just atrophied. But big fancy art gallery pieces are made to appeal to the ultra rich who purchase them as tax write-offs, so it would make sense that it would need to be the same sort of vapid shit as above.
