Detailed Description

When the world is ending, and you know it, what do you do? You take an Apocalyptic Selfie, of course. This new art style is sweeping the nation, as people document their final days with a selfie. But these aren’t just any old selfies – they’re apocalyptic, dark, and often quite disturbing. The Apocalyptic Selfie is usually taken in front of a disaster – a burning building, a collapsing bridge, a raging tornado. But it can also be taken in more mundane settings, like a crowded city street or a busy office. The point is to capture the feeling of impending doom, of the world coming to an end. And many of these selfies are quite successful at doing just that. Some of the most famous Apocalyptic Selfies were taken during the 9/11 attacks, as people documented the destruction of the Twin Towers. Other famous examples include the Fukushima nuclear disaster and the Boston Marathon bombing. But you don’t need a major disaster to take an Apocalyptic Selfie. Any situation that feels like the world is coming to an end will do. So if you’re feeling like the end is near, why not take an Apocalyptic Selfie of your own? Just make sure you’re in a safe place when you do it.

Epoch

There is no definitive answer to this question as the term “apocalyptic selfie” is relatively new and has no set parameters. However, if we consider the term to refer to any self-portrait that features elements of the apocalypse, then the time period for this art style would be from the early 21st century onwards.
