#utility pole

pushing myself out of my comfort zone and trying to draw something besides people for once. so as it is time for me to grow as a person i think im going to try to grow as an artist too.

i find utility poles kind of beautiful. they stand as a symbol of the metamodern to me. standing sentry out in fields, hemming in roadsides, serving as a reminder that even though we might drive an hour away from our houses to escape the city, we are never truly removed from it all, are we? the beauty and destruction of human progress. though poles in nature can be an awful eyesore they bring us power and light and electricity. the persistent reminder of the world we live in. i dunno

i wonder if they would have crucified Jesus on a telephone pole had He been on the earth when metamodernity sprung up. i wonder if they would have nailed Him there on the symbol of our simultaneous destruction and progress
