Wendi Schneider’s Ethereal Illusions in Shadow & Light Magazine

September 17, 2022

Wendi’s images are featured in the Language of the Land edition of Shadow & Light Magazine.

“I create illuminated impressions of glimpses of grace in our vulnerable natural world. My work is a celebration of the senses anchored in the visual – an exploration of my spiritual connection to sinuous organic forms and the transcendence I find in their beauty. I preserve mystical moments that still time for me. Viewing the world in vignettes, I am calmed by the visual balance of a compelling composition. Subtle variations of rich hues move me, and I find magic in the mist and mystery of the obscured . . .”
–– Wendi Schneider

Wendi Schneider’s “Into the Mist” Featured in ArtDoc Magazine “Voices of Nature” Issue

July 21, 2022

The images were printed with archival pigment inks on Japanese kozo paper – made from the inner bark of mulberry trees. White gold leaf was then applied on the verso, infusing the artist’s hand and suffusing the images with the implied spirituality of the precious metal. The filtered, dappled light that glimmered through the branches is echoed in the shimmer of the gilded prints.

Into the Mist
Catherine Couturier Gallery

Opening Reception: 
June 4, 11am – 4pm CT
2635 Colquitt St, Houston, TX

Catherine Couturier Gallery is delighted to present Into the Mist, an exhibition of new work by gallery artist Wendi Schneider.

In her latest series, Schneider offers glimpses of respite amidst the vague unknowing that has defined living in the time of COVID. She ventured into the mountains of North Carolina at the end of Summer 2020 to find a reprieve in shinrin-yoku, the Japanese term for the practice of forest bathing. The photographs captured on a drive amongst the trees and fog inspired Into the Mist.

Wendi Schneider to Jury Botanical for the Southeast Center of Photography

March 17, 2022

“In times of turmoil we often turn to nature for solace and centering. Whether bringing light and focus to what we are losing or celebrating rebirth, from broad landscapes to close up or microscopic forms.

Artists throughout the ages have been drawn to the vast and varied world of botanicals. What moves you? Do you celebrate the essence of beauty or strive to heighten recognition of the perilous path of our environment? Are you inspired by a single bloom or a profusion of blossoms in a lush bouquet, enchanted gardens manicured or messy, plants endangered or invasive, carefully cultivated or sown by nature, bursting forth or shriveling on a vine?”

Wendi Schneider’s “Patina Collection” Featured on All About Photo

November 23, 2021

Schneider says “I create illuminated illusions – tender, gilded offerings of fleeting moments of beauty in our vulnerable environment . . . My process creates a surface that shimmers as the viewer’s position and ambient light transition, reflecting the mercurial light at capture. Elevating the ephemeral, I follow instinctively where each image and print takes me, often altering the color, texture or gold, and honoring the variations within the edition. Each of these unique framed prints is a one-of-a-kind object of reverence.”

Wendi Schneider - Withdrawal to Tranquility

“Her work is influenced by the lush landscapes of Memphis and New Orleans, her collection of art and antiques from the turn of the twentieth century, and a background in painting and art history – in particular the work of Steichen, Whistler, and other Pictorialists and Tonalists. She turned to photography in the early 1980s to create references for her paintings, then combined the mediums…”

Wendi Schneider featured in Catherine Couturier Gallery’s “Safe in the Studio” Series

April 9, 2020

“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.
