"Insomnia," a 2018 painting by Brazilian artist Thiago Boecan, depicts a grotesque figure with a wide, gaping mouth, large, protruding ears, and a pointed, bald head. The figure's face is contorted in a horrifying grimace, suggesting an intense state of anxiety and distress. The dark, shadowy background emphasizes the subject’s isolation and discomfort, highlighting the psychological state of insomnia. The painting's striking imagery and bold brushstrokes create a powerful and unsettling portrait of a sleepless mind.
