This but unironically.
Fuck appeals to nature.
Honestly, to me the ironic part is the power lines in this artwork are unappealing to me because of the artist not the subject matter. It seems they don't know what all the lines are or where they go or how they work, so when I look at it and do know what it's supposed to look like, this just looks like a mess that makes zero sense. The artist has created some sort of electrical fire hazard.
You're gonna love this
I've seen some polls significantly worse than that, but not in a developed country.
I suspect that came directly from irl
I love nature. Termite mounds are nature, honeycombs are nature, spiderwebs are nature. Humans are a part of nature and our infrastructure is a part of who we are.
Carving out exceptions for human artifacts like this takes for granted that a bunch of arboreal primates figured out how to melt down the rocks themselves to extract their purest essence, then wound that essence into ropes that contain the lightning we learned to generate ourselves to power the many other artifacts we developed to bring light into our dwellings, communicate with primates on the other side of the planet, and automate the menial tasks of our lives.
While certainly selfish and misguided at times, everything we make is nature, just as much as honeycombs and spiderwebs.
