Is this some sort of artistic prank?

I'm late to the party, but as many people online have commented, the FIFA hastily invented peace prize (for easily bribed narcissists) has a weirdly creepy design:


  
 

Someone on X said "looks like it was based on a scene from the Walking Dead."   

Apparently, SNL's take was:  “FIFA actually invented a fake peace prize in Trump's honor, and that's why the trophy shows Trump's gnarled hands dragging Earth into hell,” 

This is what leapt to my mind when I saw it, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone, somewhere, has already pointed it out:

  1. Wouldn't be above the designers to make this sort of prank, but I sometimes wonder if we're in a designed world that is so symbolically rich already that it is becoming impossible to come up with a good design that has not already been used for something else.
