Who is she-he?
Candystore is the author of Further From Heaven (Smutburger Editions), a book about gay sex apps and desire in the digital age.
Candystore’s writing and art have been published in PAPER Magazine, Precog Mag, RFD, The Whitney Review of New Writing, and others. She-he has performed abroad and around New York City, most notably at MoMA PS1 (though it was only in the book store), Dixon Place (but in that weird area between the bar and the bathroom), and The Parkside Lounge.
In 2019, Candystore was one of four recipients of the Shannon Michael Cane Award from Printed Matter, allowing shimher to self-publish her debut, *SOLD OUT* book of poetry, Hi Angels: Poems by Candystore. This book was re-editioned in 2020 as an extended version, Hi Angels: DELUXE—also sold out, sorry.
Candystore was a 2018-2019 artist-in-residence with Shandaken: Governor’s Island and a 2018-2019 fellow in the Queer | Art | Mentorship program.
Candystore loves dick and lives in Brooklyn, NY with shimher husband and a snake named Mascara.
