The world in photos: Sept 22-28

A recreation of the photo of Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding kiss made out of recycled waste. These incredible reproductions of famous art works and celebrity portraits are fetching thousands of pounds despite being made - from junk. British artist Jane Perkins, 56, makes these intricate pieces of art from thousands of unwanted items including buttons, plastic cutlery and toys. She has become known for her unusual art and regularly comes home to find her garden full of bags of recycling, kindly donated by neighbors. Perkins then searches through the bags and uses the odds and ends to make portraits and recreations of iconic images. [Photo/IC]
