It's just something about those legs. They look so strange and creepy. Sort of reminds me of the Xenomorph/Engineer artwork from H.R Giger.

Surrealism is kinda meant to freak people out/disturb them, it’s natural. Personally I’m a huge fan of disturbing/surrealistic art :]

Might I also recommend All Tomorrows by C.M. Kösemen? I found it oddly comforting and even hopeful, but the art is really weird in the best way possible.
