MOSCOW (Reuters) - While making blinis one morning in self-isolation, Natalia Goroshko noticed one in her pan had taken the floppy form of one of Salvador Dali's melting clocks.

The 31-year-old Belarusian living in Texas placed three blinis in her kitchen to match their position in the Dali painting, then photographed and posted her creation in a Russian-language Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/izoizolyacia encouraging members to reproduce famous artworks with items found at home.
