About the Item

Untitled - Stage of Consciousness (29 Palms, CA) - 2007 75x93cm, Edition 5/5 , analog C-Print, hand-printed by the artist on Fuji Crystal Archive Paper, based on the Polaroid, Artist inventory Number 7974.05 Mounted on Aluminum with matte UV-Protection. Signed on verso. "Untitled" from the "Stage of Consciousness" Chapter of the 29 Palms, CA Project (2007): A Portrait of Contemplation Stefanie Schneider's "Untitled" from the "Stage of Consciousness" chapter of her 29 Palms, CA project presents an evocative portrait of a red-headed woman on what appears to be a makeshift stage—a weathered concrete slab set against the expansive desert landscape. The central figure, a red-headed woman, is adorned in a body-hugging pink jumpsuit that accentuates her form, echoing the unique blend of sensuality and vulnerability often found in Schneider's work. Her contemplative expression captures a moment of introspection, inviting viewers to ponder the thoughts that occupy her beautiful face. The woman's slightly tousled hair hints at a gentle breeze that stirs the desert air, adding an element of movement and spontaneity to the composition. Behind her, in the distance, lies a cabin nestled within the rugged terrain, with the mountains providing a majestic backdrop. This juxtaposition of the solitary figure against the expansive desert and distant cabin creates a sense of isolation and yearning, allowing viewers to imagine the stories and emotions that may lie beneath the surface. "Untitled" captures a sense of timelessness, as if the woman's contemplation exists outside the boundaries of a single moment. It evokes a blend of curiosity and introspection, inviting viewers to join the subject in her exploration of the vast and enigmatic desert landscape. Through this artwork, Schneider continues to masterfully explore the complexities of human emotion and connection within the stark and captivating beauty of the American Southwest. 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 2018. “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”)
