Woman In Living Room
Acrylics
2021
36 x 24 inch

It is a poignant glimpse into the solitary existence of a retired elderly woman. The cluttered living room, overwhelmed by whirring fans, reflects the stagnant nature of her days. At the center of this stifling atmosphere lies the woman herself, perpetually confined to the sofa, her sole companion a dog tethered to her side. The mindless drone of Netflix serves as a desperate attempt to fill the void, a futile distraction from the loneliness and purposelessness that permeate her retirement years. With an air of despondency, the scene encapsulates the harsh reality of aging, where the once-vibrant living room becomes a prison cell, and the golden years lose their luster, replaced by a monotonous cycle of hopelessness and depression.
