A lot of individuals enjoy spending time at the beach gathering shells and rocks. However, Anna Chan, a New York-based artist, elevated this game. Chan, a jewelry maker by trade, ceased work when the Covid-19 outbreak struck. She, therefore, passed the time by going to the beach with her 10-year-old daughter. They then began to gather seashells and create animal-inspired sculptures out of them.
