Noise musician BF Abstract artist GF you’re not a real artist

What it means

A noise musician boyfriend and an abstract artist girlfriend accuse each other of not being a real artist. The joke mocks gatekeeping between unconventional creative subcultures, where each person dismisses the other’s medium as illegitimate. It is used as a reaction to rival artists or hobbyists arguing over authenticity.
