Just look at all the "art" being sold nowadays.

I still remember one guy who would make "art" by getting behind a jet engine and throw buckets of paint into the backwash.
"This is Splat #3!"

The man is chasing the dog because it escaped from his car.

The dog is chasing the woman because she has treats in her purse, or he thinks she does.

The woman is chasing the alligator because she needs new shoes and matching luggage.

The alligator is chasing the man because it hasn't eaten today.

And when the viewer gives up trying to make sense out of this ugly thing, she can chain her bicycle to the pipe.
