Artwork Title: Blue Organza (Fabrication Series)

Blue Organza (Fabrication Series), 2012

Maxine Helfman

"The series of boys in girls’ dresses is called Fabrication. Tell us about the relationship between that title and the subjects. Maxine Helfman: I’ve always been fascinated by the ‘elephant in the room,’ so I titled each piece by a description of the fabric of the dress, shifting the focus to the ‘fabrication,’ rather than the gender. It was also interesting that the word fabrication has another meaning—a falsehood." http://atlengthmag.com/photography/maxine-helfman/
