If beauty is subjective, what about reality?

It's all a matter of perspective.

Reality is subjective here.

Of course. What we see is built around what our bodies, eyes, can process. And what our brains can do with that data too. A car accident can wipe a person's ability to see in colour, or know object permanence so their experience of the world is very different. Our beliefs and opinions add layers. A religious statue that is "crying" is a miracle to one person, but a coincidence of chemical reactions to another. One sees tears the other sees bacterial reactions to bronze or stone.

Some theories suggest there is multiple dimensions but we don't have the tools to see them just like (in theory) insects or some animals don't have to ability to see/comtemplate the world we live in.

If you brought a child into this world and kept it in a bunker and educated only on what you told it ("this is all there is, the outside is a apocalyptic wasteland") that would be reality to that child.

Neuroscience tells us that our brain reconstructs reality based on the data received from our five senses. So in that sense reality is indeed subjective. Or as Ned Stark famously said:

I think reality can be subjective too, very often... but different people have different interpretations, so it kinda depends on the individual perspective.
