Physical art. (Not digital.) What sells? What is truly appreciated?

The question lacks context, imho.

The only answer I can propose is: whatever you can make that will appeal to people enough for them to be willing to buy it, if you're creating a unique piece of art. Painting, sketch, sculpture, collage, and so on. I very recently read somoene sold a banana taped onto a sheet of paper for a very large sum of money. A little over a century ago, Marcel Duchamp exposed a urinal, how much is it worth today? So, really, anything can sell and can be appreciated as art.

Also, if you're creating 'reproductible' physical art pieces (say a recording or some printed stuff, or whatever), I would say anything that can make some buzz and gather enough people around it.
