Wendi Schneider and her photograph “Refuge” were recently highlighted on Vision Gallery’s Instagram by gallery manager Yehuda Winiarz, who gives an excellent and thoughtful breakdown of Wendi’s background and process.
“Schneider has perfected a gilding process in which her images seemingly dance on the paper’s surface amidst reflections of light on precious metals, creating a synthesis of technique and subject.”

“These images capture the subdued quality of this worrisome time, when we are newly awakened to our immediate surroundings and the quiet moments of beauty and grace in our busy lives.”
— Kate Ware, Exhibition Curator
Wendi Schneider is thrilled to announce her latest project, The Patina Collection. Each print from the States of Grace series in The Patina Collection is paired with a specially selected antique frame, making these inherently unique gilded prints truly one-of-a-kind works of art. This collection is the synthesis of nearly 40 years of collecting and creating, fused with a lifetime of love for the natural world and all its mysterious beauty.
Thanks to Elin Spring and Suzanne Revy for including “Little Black Angel” in the “Solace” installment of Viewfinder, a series of themed virtual exhibitions.

“My practice has not shifted measurably in the time of Covid-19. I turn to nature to dwell in serenity amidst the chaos, for it is there I find sanctuary and respite. I am transfixed and transformed when I capture impressions of fleeting grace in the natural world. Calmed by fluid, organic shapes reminiscent of the elegant whiplash lines of art nouveau botanicals, I photograph intuitively.“
Wendi contributed a post to Safe in the Studio, a weekly series created in response to the pandemic, where artists offer insight into their work and artist practice.

SHOTS Magazine featured Wendi Schneider as the designated “Emerging Photographer” for their JOURNEY issue. Many thanks to Douglas Beasley for his wonderful interview!
“I saw your portfolio ‘Evenings With the Moon’ at PhotoLucida and was knocked out by the physicality of the prints — how they felt in my hand, the translucence. I thought the gold leafing was especially effective in giving the prints a sense of both delicacy and depth. That quality is so hard to convey in the two dimensions of print.“

Many thanks to Michael Kirchoff for his illuminating interview with Wendi for Catalyst:Interviews, his series of discussions with photographers on the creative process.
“Images like hers are achieved only through a process of thoughtful examination and execution. … The artist’s hand is evident in every single one of them, and they share the same qualities as their creator – uniqueness, elegance, and a reverence for the tangible.”
