Please don't take away the viewers right to see your art with their own imagination. I happen to enjoy the harsh stroke of contraversy as much as a very good painting may be "as is" for the quality and the gentle stroke of the brush that nourished it upon its' canvas. You cannot possibly mean to suggest artists throw up signs saying their art means THIS and THAT and no one shall be allowed to see it different, that would just be so very wrong and cruel and could take away inspiration and value galore. It is very important for me to see what I wish to see in art, it just makes the whole viewing so much a delight for me especially since I cannot create anything more than a chicken can. And even chickens can lay eggs. Please allow the art to keep telling me magnificent stories within my own mind because if you try to get art to stop doing that, much like a bad video it can quickly become just another egg in the coop. Art is precious, and a chicken just tastes good with stuffing.
