About the Item

Two Unknown Boys (Stranger than Paradise) - 1997 - 44 x 59 cm, Edition 8/10. Analog C-Print, hand-printed by the artist. based on the Polaroid. Certificate and Signature label. Artist Inventory No. 136.08. Not mounted. Published in 'Stranger than Paradise' (Hatje Cantz) - monograph. What makes Stefanie Schneider’s work so unique is that it’s immediately recognizable. Perfect ‘wabi-sabi’ in appearance and content. Dream-like, colorful with depth and vision. From start to finish, a truly self-made artist with a distinctively female perspective. Stefanie Schneider's scintillating situations take place in the American West. Situated on the verge of an elusive super-reality, her photographic sequences provide the ambiance for loosely woven storylines and a cast of phantasmic characters. Schneider works with the chemical mutations of expired polaroid film stock. Chemical explosions of color spreading across the surfaces undermine the photograph's commitment to reality and induce her characters into trance-like dreamscapes. Like flickering sequences of old road movies Schneider's images seem to evaporate before conclusions can be made - their ephemeral reality manifesting in subtle gestures and mysterious motives. Schneider's images refuse to succumb to reality, they keep alive the confusions of dream, desire, fact, and fiction.
