May or may not strike a chord with
1. Do you think "which" is referring to "what Kaye did in his interventionist artworks" or "the very nature of what art is today"?
2. Does "that may or may not strike a chord with something felt to be deeply true" mean "the kind of art that may or may not tell the truth" that is "in this kind of art the telling of the truth is not a priority"?
Context:
Lewis Blackwell has suggested that what Kaye did in his interventionist artworks was to expose the very nature of what art is today, which Blackwell sees as a matter of pointless and dull self-expression that may or may not strike a chord with something felt to be deeply true. More to the point, however, I would argue that Kaye exposed the nature of the art world for what it is.
