You need a MaterialApp or a WidgetsApp around your widget. They provide the MediaQuery. When you call .of(context) flutter will always look up the widget tree to find the widget.

You usually have this in your main.dart:

void main() => runApp(App());

class App extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Title',
      theme: kThemeData,
      home: HomePage(),
    );
  }
}

class HomePage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final size = MediaQuery.of(context).size;

    return Container(
      child: ...,
    );
  }
}
