An artist is giving President-elect Donald Trumps most outrageous comments the comic book treatment.
CartoonistRobert Sikoryak is transforming several of the controversial and offensive statements that Trump made during the presidential election campaign into eye-catching and thought-provoking illustrations.
The idea occurred to me right before the election, the New York City-based artisttold The Huffington Post on Saturday. Trump had said so many outrageous things during his campaign that I wanted to catalogue them.
It was important to me to only use Trumps actual quotes, I didnt want to put any words in his mouth, he added. Once Trump became the president-elect, I felt I had to do it.
Sikoryaks work has previously appeared on the cover pages of The New Yorker magazine and the Harvard Business Review. He has also transformed Apples iTunes terms of service into comic parodies.
For this project, titled The Unquotable Trump, he has compiled the imagesinto a mini-comic. Hes also posting them on a dedicated Tumblr page.
The reaction has been very enthusiastic, much more so than I expected, Sikoryak told HuffPost. I needed to get these comics out of my system, so its gratifying that other people have been enjoying them.
