As more and more countries are placing its citizens under quarantine to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) disease, it’s no wonder that people are starting to do anything and everything to cure their boredom.
If you too are desperate to do something fun at home while self-isolating, the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, California has this suggestion: recreate your favorite artwork by only using things you can find indoors!
We challenge you to recreate a work of art with objects (and people) in your home.
