About the Item

Birdy (Stage of Consciousness) - 2007 20x24cm, Edition of 10. Archival C-Print, based on a Polaroid. Signature label and Certificate. artist Inventory No. 7865. Not mounted. 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.

Her-Untitled 3. Abstract Figurative color limited edition photograph
Located in Miami Beach, FL
Her-Untitled 3, 2018 by Ying Chen From the Her series Archival pigment print Image size: 24 in. H x 20 in. W Edition of 5 + 1AP Unframed This is a photo contemporary collage project based on modern art. Greatly influenced by natural figures and artificial textures. I love to collect black and white photos of female portraits, cutting out the parts and stripping them from the original context, combining them with the abstract design figure, to get a new composition. This project is about 'she', every single piece has a unique female image, and each composition has a different character. Mysterious women are always a very attractive point to me. Ideally, behind every independent female figure, I want the audience to see a gentle but strong female image. Its basic sense is to make her seem to have life, when she smiles or looks up, every move is gentle and beautiful. "Memory" is another word I would like to mention in this project. Behind every one of my works, there is a memory of different-sometimes or that one day. It almost mirrors my time, my thoughts, and my personality. like a quote from Kurt Cobain's journals "I use bits...
