Glory and riches fairly rarely come to artists. Neither do MOMA exhibitions.
And as for the analysis, it's not woo-y. It's "simply" very cerebral art, with much less of a visceral impact. The downside of that kind of art is that it only makes sense in a much larger context, of both what the art world was thinking, and what the world at large was thinking, at the time you painted it. (So does representational art, but at least the first or second layer is immediately accessible)
Your picture's analysis will likely speak of the constant pressures of a pandemic and an inequal society, as well as a rampant, population-wide anti-intellectualism that at a very deep level was upset by artists getting lost in their mental landscape instead of being more direct and expressive.
Maybe you should make that art piece.
