About the Item

"Palm Springs Palm Trees II" (Stranger than Paradise) - 2016 20x20cm, Edition 3/10, digital C-Print, based on a Polaroid. Certificate and Signature label, Not mounted , Artist Inventory Number 19078.10 The Art of Building a World: Stefanie Schneider’s Enduring Vision Stefanie Schneider’s career is more than a collection of images—it’s a universe unto itself. Spanning decades, her work is an immersive experience, a delicate blend of nostalgia, imperfection, and raw emotional storytelling. She embraced Polaroid film just as it was disappearing, not as a fleeting experiment, but as a defining element of her vision. Where others sought digital perfection, she found beauty in unpredictability, turning chemical mutations into a language of their own. Recognition has followed naturally—not through compromise, but through conviction. From exhibitions across Europe and the U.S. to a special mention in Arles, her work has shaped the conversation around contemporary photography. But Stefanie’s art isn’t confined to galleries. It spills into books, into film (The Girl Behind the White Picket Fence), and even into the rhythm of her everyday life on a farm where chickens roam like living installations in a desert landscape. Stefanie’s career is proof that true artistry is not about following trends but creating worlds. She doesn’t manipulate her Polaroids, nor does she bend her artistic principles to fit commercial molds. Instead, she cultivates a deeply personal, evolving narrative that resonates with those who see beyond the surface. Her work isn't just collected—it’s lived with, dreamed into, and remembered. This is what it means to be an artist—not just a creator of images, but a maker of mythologies, a curator of emotion, and a weaver of imperfect, unforgettable dreams. 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.
