About the Item

One Day I'll Fly - Stage of Consciousness (29 Palms, CA) - 2007 75x93cm, Edition of 10 plus 2 Artist Proofs, Archival C-Print based on the Polaroid. Signature label and Certificate. Artist Inventory No. 6392. Not mounted. 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 in relation to 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. 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. “It was Stefanie Schneider, who inspired me to start the company THE IMPOSSIBLE PROJECT after seeing her work, which seems to achieve the possible from the impossible, creating the finest of art out of the most basic of mediums and materials. Indeed, after that one day, I was so impressed with her photography that I realized Polaroid film could not be allowed to disappear. Being at the precise moment in time where the world was about to lose Polaroid, I seized the moment and have put all my efforts and passion into saving Polaroid film. For that, I thank Stefanie Schneider almost exclusively, who played a bigger role than anyone in saving this American symbol of photography.” –Florian Kaps, March 8th 2010 (“Doc” Dr. Florian Kaps, founder of “The Impossible Project”)
