These empty alcohol bottles have been upcycled by having a painting of portraits of people and animals on them. They appear in the window of the Far Rockaway Bar in Shoreditch (http://www.farrockaway.co.uk).
The bar has attracted artists and commissions them to create artwork for the bar, and there are several examples of street art painted onto the walls and inside the entrance of the bar. Yvonne Wayling created these faces of people and cats on discarded alcohol bottles.
