Understanding this quote

The speaker starts with confidence in their own way of seeing something, but remains open to being corrected by the artist’s work. “Shows me otherwise” means the artwork can reveal an interpretation or possibility the speaker had not considered. The final phrase adds humility: this change of mind happens often, not just in rare cases.
