"The word 'artifice,' to me, is like 'cabaret,' it has the same sting; there's this idea that there's a process of veiling, something that isn't true. With someone like Candy Darling, what some might perceive as artifice, this gesture of femininity, is actually a revelation of a true sense of herself: a more intimate gesture couldn't be made, it couldn't be more authentic. 'Artifice' suggests to me a baroque frill, a sense of defense, a layer of something that separates you from the truth. Sometimes form and creative expression magnifies the truth."
