Art while in quarantine: paintings and statues that come to life in our homes

In times like these, getting distracted is essential: having something to do that gets us through the tough times is a cure-all solution.

Since museums, galleries and fairs have been closed for a while now, the longing to appreciate classic art is greater than ever. To continue giving oxygen to those of us who love art, there are alternative opportunities we’ve found to creatively do so. A social campaign born couple of months ago by J. Paul Getty Museum challenged the online community to recreate famous paintings. The rules are simple: choose a work of art and recreate it at home, using everything you have for the mise en scène.

 We, at MSA, had fun replicating our favorite paintings and sculptures, transforming ourselves into living pieces of art!
