Galerie Sophie Scheidecker “The transparent architecture inspired her with optical illusions. The interiors and the exteriors became one. The reflections of light and shadow showed her new points of view. Stephanie Pfriender Stylander was transported by the poetic emptiness of the city's silent interiors and its exposed streets. This strange disruption of our daily life revived the artist's early years of learning photography into a vocabulary that was familiar to her. Indeed, at that time Stephanie Pfriender Stylander wandered alone with her camera in cities of unknown countries whose language she did not know, creating a silent atmosphere. And so the past and present merged, Pfriender Stylander photographing poignant scenes with no interruption.”
AnOther Magazine “Here was this sleeping giant so quiet, stunning and private. I walked this concrete jungle and found poetry in the desolation, the buildings stood handsomely tall, shining in the noonday sun, with no life on the street, people had fled, the metropolis was closed. And as if a curtain came down, reminding me of nocturnal dreams where scenes are familiar yet different, echoing memory and knocking on the door of love.”
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung ‘But the mannequins, also stand out strangely, as if they had a message to convey beyond consumption, as if they wanted to reveal a secret. She seems to have understood this as an invitation to enter a strange sphere. And she savored it like a love letter that you read and put away and take out again to reread it.’ Freddy Langer
Collectible DRY Magazine “When I started working on this series I recalled the times when I was living in Paris and would walk up to Montmartre on early Sunday mornings when the buildings, restaurants, bars and streets were draped in a foggy silence and I would roam around with my Leica. The days of the pandemic in NYC, my city became foreign, ambiguous, haunting and called me, and so I would roam around with my Leica.”

'‘The ambiguous shrouded figure acts as a symbolic representation of the hidden self, explored by the undefinable psychic occurrences that transpire between the universal us, the image in its aftermath and our world of today, all in a state of flux. I am the photographer, subject and sometimes viewer”.
