About the Item

'Beloved' (Stage of Consciousness) - 2007 20x24cm, sold out Edition of 5, Artist Proof 2/2, (the last) Archival C-Print, based on the Polaroid, signature label and certificate. Artist Inventory No 6318.18. Not mounted. "Beloved Whispers: A Glimpse of Connection" Within Stefanie Schneider's intricate narrative within the "Stage of Consciousness" series, the artwork "Beloved" unfolds as a mesmerizing tableau—a vivid portrayal that captures the essence of a fleeting yet profound moment of interaction. Against the canvas of blue sky and fluffy clouds, the delicate connection between the female character and the small yellow bird finds its expression. Radiant Presence: Radha Mitchell's Profound Gaze At the heart of the composition resides the profile of the character portrayed by Australian actress Radha Mitchell. Her countenance is illuminated by the gentle glow of the sun, casting a radiant aura around her presence. Dressed in a bright yellow negligee, a symbol of vulnerability and allure, she emanates an air of captivation. Nature's Accomplice: The Flower in Red Hair A vibrant flower nestles within her red hair—a subtle touch that resonates with the organic world around her. The contrast between the fiery red of the bloom and the golden hues of her hair evokes the harmony between human and nature. The flower becomes a bridge that connects her to the world beyond, hinting at the symbiotic dance between life forms. Tender Enchantment: Pursuit of Connection Close to her, a birdcage cradles a small yellow bird—an embodiment of freedom juxtaposed against the constraint of captivity. The female character's pursed lips and her intent gaze form an image of tender enchantment as she tries to engage the bird. This gesture speaks of a desire to establish a connection, a bridge across the divide between human and avian worlds. Celestial Symphony: Sky and Clouds as Backdrop The sky above, a canvas of serene blue adorned with drifting white clouds, forms a celestial symphony—a perfect backdrop against which human and nature's interactions unfurl. The clouds, like the passing moments, lend an ethereal quality, reminding viewers of the transient nature of connections. A Moment's Pause: Reflections of Serenity In "Beloved," Schneider's artistry captures a suspended moment—an intimate vignette that beckons us to pause and reflect. The tableau becomes an embodiment of a deeper narrative—the communion between human, nature, and the unseen threads that bind existence. "Beloved Whispers" transports us into a world where connections are forged across boundaries. The female character's interaction with the bird, the vibrant bloom, and the infinite sky converge to create a tapestry that resonates with the profound unity that weaves through the fabric of life.
