About the Item

Untitled (Cathy and Shannon) - 2004 20x20cm, Edition of 10, plus 2 Artist Proofs. Archival C-Print, based on a Polaroid. Certificate and Signature label. Artist Inventory No. 489. Not mounted. STEFANIE SCHNEIDER ON THE WEST, NOSTALGIA AND INSTANT DREAMS Stefanie Schneider distills the spirit of the American West into images that blur the lines between dream and memory, love and loss, light and decay. Through her lens, she captures the archetypal longing of fleeting romance, the raw beauty of imperfection, and the quiet tenderness of women nurturing chickens—symbols of both fragility and resilience. Her work is not just photography; it is an act of projection, a yearning for the life she envisions, the love she hopes to give and receive, and the restless desire that lingers between them. Schneider's signature aesthetic—burned spots, hazy washes of color, and light bleeding into light—emerges not from manipulation but from the delicate chemistry of expired Polaroid film, embracing the unpredictability of time itself. These so-called flaws do not diminish; they elevate, transforming her work into a mythic dreamscape where nostalgia and reality merge. As both artist and subject, Schneider often steps into her own frame, embedding each photograph with her reflections on existence, longing, and the passage of time. Her world—a desert ranch, an untamed horizon, a farm humming with the quiet life of chickens—becomes the stage for her storytelling. Here, in the sunburnt hues of her photographs, the viewer is invited to slip into a world where the past is ever-present, and the present dissolves into memory.
