It’s the End of the World 2020

"It's the End of the World," a 2020 painting by Valeria Duca, depicts a young woman in a hospital gown, seemingly disoriented and exhausted. She holds a red bag of chips, a symbol of comfort or potential indulgence, while various candy wrappers scatter around her. The woman's expression is forlorn, and her eyes are vacant, suggesting a sense of disillusionment or resignation. The painting's title and imagery evoke a feeling of impending doom, highlighting the fragility of life and the potential for despair. This powerful work, created with oil on canvas, is a testament to Duca's ability to capture raw emotion and depict complex themes in a realistic and poignant manner.
