    Photographers Bruno Metra and Laurence Jeanson have created a portrait series of people who appear to have had cosmetic surgery.

    However, the models' nips and tucks are actually cut-outs from magazines.

    Poking fun at the fashion industry the French artists stick images of facial features, cut out from fashion magazines, over the models' eyes, lips and noses to form new facial expressions.

    The surreal project entitled ID is experimenting with visual perception and demonstrating that beauty is no longer natural, but socially conditioned.
