Chicken Wire Masterpieces

An artist has recreated the iconic faces of music legends the Beatles, Michael Jackson and Jimi Hendrix using nothing but chicken wire. The incredibly lifelike pieces are made of just under 100 feet of the unusual material and take Ivan Lovatt more than a month to painstakingly twist and pin into shape. To date, the 46-year-old has built up quite a collection of famous faces - from musicians to entertainers and explorers. One sculpture, of musician Bob Dylan, is modelled in such exquisite detail you can almost see every hair on his head. Another is the spitting image of Dame Edna Everage and shows the larger-than-life entertainer in her trademark whacky glasses. Even genius Albert Einstein and American president Abraham Lincoln are part of the extraordinary collection.
