About the Item

Buried (Stranger than Paradise) - 1999 Edition of 10, 58x56cm, Analog C-Print, hand-printed by the artist on Fuji Crystal Archive Paper, based on the Polaroid. Artist inventory Number 640. Signature label and Certificate. Not mounted. Stefanie Schneider: A Visionary of Fleeting Dreams Stefanie Schneider’s work exists at the crossroads of nostalgia and uncertainty, where memory dissolves into myth and the passage of time is etched in chemical decay. Known for her evocative use of expired Polaroid film, she transforms imperfections—color shifts, light leaks, and chemical artifacts—into hauntingly beautiful narratives that transcend the limitations of traditional photography. Her images are cinematic in scope, often unfolding like stills from an unfinished film, inviting the viewer to step into a world both familiar and elusive. Schneider’s subjects, bathed in the hazy glow of the California desert, evoke a sense of longing, escape, and the fragility of human connection. More than an artist, Schneider is a storyteller, her work blurring the boundaries between reality and fiction, past and present. With international acclaim and a reputation for pushing the boundaries of analog photography, she continues to challenge perceptions, proving that imperfection is not a flaw but a language of its own. Her work resonates with collectors, filmmakers, and dreamers alike—those who see beauty in the ephemeral and poetry in the fading light. Stefanie Schneider received her MFA in Communication Design at the Folkwang Schule Essen, Germany. Her work has been shown at the Museum for Photography, Braunschweig, Museum für Kommunikation, Berlin, the Institut für Neue Medien, Frankfurt, the Nassauischer Kunstverein, Wiesbaden, Kunstverein Bielefeld, Museum für Moderne Kunst Passau, Les Rencontres d'Arles, Foto -Triennale Esslingen, Bombay Beach Biennale.
