About the Item

Palms (Ghost Town) - 2020 Sketches of a downtown disappearing. 40x40cm, Edition of 7, plus 2 Artist proofs. Digital silver gelatin print based on a Polaroid. Signed on back with Certificate. Not mounted. Erin Dougherty was born in San Francisco, raised in Palm Springs. She lived in almost every part of California and Arizona then moved to Florence, Italy for some time before returning to her home State. She received a B.A. in Art from Humboldt State University. Erin is a photographer, collagist and general bon vivant. She has been working with Polaroids for the past 10 years. Artist Statement I look for the unexpected. I search for the unusual. I seek to share my view of the world. I am drawn to Polaroid because of the mysterious, ethereal quality of the finished image. There is a softening of the harsh reality or the world. All my work reflects my mood, my emotions and my general attitude during the time the work is being created. I use art to express the emotions that I am unable to say out loud. That’s not to say that my work is morose, depending on the project or the theme I do try to add a touch of whimsy. At this point in my life I can’t imagine a day where I'm not actively planning or working on my next project.

Palm Springs Palm Trees (Californication) - 2021 50x50cm. Edition of 10 plus 2 Artist Proofs. Archival C-Print, based on a Polaroid. Certificate and Signature label. Artist Inventory Number 23820. Not mounted. Schneider harnesses the unpredictable chemical mutations of expired Polaroid film, where bursts of color erupt across the surface, destabilizing the photograph's traditional allegiance to reality. These vivid distortions draw her characters into ethereal, trance-like dreamscapes. Like fleeting sequences from a vintage road movie, Schneider’s images shimmer with a transitory quality, dissolving before any definitive conclusions can be drawn. Their ephemeral essence is conveyed through subtle gestures and enigmatic motives. Refusing to yield to the constraints of reality, Schneider’s work keeps alive a delicate interplay of dream, desire, fact, and fiction, blurring the boundaries between them with poetic ambiguity. Stefanie Schneider’s work echoes the heart of American art, channeling the cinematic nostalgia of Ed Ruscha’s roadscapes, the stark sensuality of Georgia O’Keeffe’s deserts, and the haunting solitude of Edward Hopper’s paintings...
