Often in wigs and colourful dress Schneider\u2019s images evoke ideas of masquera&#8230;de and play, however the intense gazes of Schneider\u2019s female characters undermine their playful edge suggesting an unnerving or tragic quality beneath the surface of these glossy women. Together her photographs evoke love, pain, loneliness, alienation and re-discovery and collectively can be seen to suggest a social commentary on America; pointing to the cracks beneath the surface of the glitz and glamour of Western American and the \u2018American Dream\u2019.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><code>About Stefanie Schneider<\/code><br \/>\nVisual artist and queer woman <a title=\"Stefanie Schneider\" href=\"http:\/\/www.instantdreams.net\/main\" target=\"_blank\">Stefanie Schneider<\/a> was born in Germany in 1968.
