When I break it down, it's a work of art.
What does it mean in that context?

I propose two possible interpretations.
Here's a larger portion of the lyrics.
One basic interpretation is as follows.
Notice that she's analyzing herself in the lyrics and she concludes that her traits are a work of art.
Another meaning of break it down is to dance, especially, energetic, loose, freestyle dancing. Here is an example: Ellen and Michelle Obama Break It Down.
So, another interpretation is when she breaks it down (= dances), it's a work of art.
