Stefanie Schneider
Car Wash (Instantdreams) - Contemporary, Landscape, Cityscape, expired, Polaroid

1999

About the Item

Car Wash (Stranger than Paradise) - 1999 50x50cm, Edition of 10, plus 2 Artist Proofs. Archival C-Print, based on a Polaroid. Certificate and signature label. Artist inventory Number 396. Not mounted. Stefanie is a dedicated artist to the medium of 'expired instant film' and built her own analog darkroom to produce her works from concept to finished work of art. Schneider became the muse to her own medium in 2010 when an admirer bought the last remaining instant film production factory left in the world just before it's destruction, therefore saving the medium from obligation. The full circle complete and it was called Impossible! The craft is strong in this one. Stefanie Schneider lives and works in Los Angeles where her scintillating situations take place in the American West. Situated on the verge of an elusive super-reality, her photographic sequences provide the ambience for loosely woven story lines and a cast of phantasmic characters. Schneider works with the chemical mutations of expired Polaroid film stock. Chemical explosions of color spreading across the surfaces undermine the photograph's commitment to reality and induce her characters into trance-like dreamscapes. Like flickering sequences of old road movies Schneider's images seem to evaporate before conclusions can be made - their ephemeral reality manifesting in subtle gestures and mysterious motives. Schneider's images refuse to succumb to reality, they keep alive the confusions of dream, desire, fact, and fiction.
