Artist Turns Hateful Tweets Into Caitlyn Jenner Art

In an effort to show the world just what kind of hateful things transgender people hear on a regular basis, out U.K.-based artist Conor Collins re-created a portrait of Caitlyn Jenner's famous Vanity Fair cover using only the negative tweets she's received.

"Like anyone curious, I went on her Twitter to see more and was horrified by some of the comments," Collins told BuzzFeed about how he stumbled upon the idea to turn Internet hate regarding Jenner's very public transition into something beautiful and artistic. "When I saw these, I wanted to show them because it is a reality of what trans people experience every day."

This isn't the first time Collins has taken on a project like this. Last year he re-created a portrait of Olympic diver Tom Daley using the many homophobic messages (also found on Twitter) he received after news broke out that he was dating another man, Dustin Lance Black.

Death threats are among the common hateful messages featured in Collin's portrait of Jenner, an image originally photographed by Annie Leibovitz.

"Caitlyn is making a difference to the trans community -- however I didn't want to hide the darkness and persecution they face in my art piece," he told BuzzFeed. "It just wouldn't be fair."
