About the Item

Flick (The Girl behind the White Picket Fence) - 2015 20x20cm, Edition of 10, plus 2 Artist Proofs. Archival C-Print, based on the Polaroid. Signature label and certificate. Artist Inventory Number 16108. Not mounted. Offered is a piece from the movie: The Girl Behind the White Picket Fence. Photographed and directed by Stefanie Schneider A tale told with blemished and expired Polaroid film about the hopes and dreams of a newly orphaned girl after losing her parents who lived in the Californian desert in an old travel trailer. -filmed with Polaroid film stock and Super-8 footage, overlaid with poetic voice-over monologue - this feature film creates a dynamic kaleidoscope of words and pictures, a dreamy tale that channels Terrence Malick, Gus Van Sant, and pages torn from a lonely girl's journal. (Palms Springs Life magazine / Caroline Ryder) One of the most obvious themes in Stefanie Schneider's Polaroid photography is the exploration of the human condition, particularly in relation to memory, nostalgia, and the passage of time. Many of her images feature vintage and retro elements, such as old cars, vintage clothing, and classic Hollywood iconography, which serve to evoke a sense of nostalgia and a longing for a bygone era. At the same time, her use of Polaroid film, with its unique and often unpredictable qualities, emphasizes the fleeting nature of memory and the passage of time. By juxtaposing these vintage elements with the inherently ephemeral qualities of the Polaroid medium, Schneider invites viewers to contemplate the transitory nature of existence and the fleeting nature of the moments that make up our lives. Additionally, Schneider's work often explores themes of desire, intimacy, and sexuality, particularly about female identity and empowerment. Through her images, she challenges traditional notions of femininity and sexuality and encourages viewers to reconsider their perceptions of gender and sexuality. Overall, her work offers a multifaceted and nuanced exploration of the complexities of human existence, making it both thought-provoking and emotionally resonant.
