To me this fits the theme because it looks like art but it's not. If you look closely you will see what this is. So in a way it's a lie, that will make you realize the truth. In this case how awesome our world is around us if we stop and take a moment to notice. Well I tired. (5 years and 3236 days ago)

Ok, Ok... I honestly didn't think this needed a description as it was made to be close (at least stylistically, not qualitatively) to Picasso. I think the quote is basically saying that art makes us think, and analyze. For example, this entry is entitled "woman." It has two eyes, hair, a nose, and a mouth - just like "real" women. Does it look like a real woman? No. Do the women around us look like "real" women? No. The ones we are flooded with in the media are air brushed, made up, fake haired mannequins with plastic bags stuck under their skin so their boobs stick out. Even the women around us day to day are not "allowed" to just be themselves (women). They may not go to the lengths of the media charicatures, but they do the same basic stuff on a smaller scale (we men do too). We are presented lies, and we present lies. (Some) Art points out the lies and makes us think about the truth of the topic.

I'm glad it makes some laugh (I guess it does kind of resemble a maniacal muppet). I think that means, that at least on some level, you recognize how absurd this situation is.
