Kimberly Schneider is a Visual Artist, Educator, and Master Printer who has been dedicated to the art of the handmade (darkroom) print for the past 20+ years; She not only prints all of her own work by hand and teaches (publicly), but also takes on private students, as well as well prints for other film-based artists and enthusiasts.
Specializing in true infrared film, spiritual landscapes, and experimental photograms, she holds a BFA in photography (and a minor in philosophy) from Colorado State University; While both are deeply intertwined, she identifies as a Printer more than anything else.
Her silver gelatin prints have been exhibited (domestically) at Scott Nichols Gallery, Photo Forward Los Angeles, The Camera Obscura Gallery, San Diego Art Institute, Lightbox Photographic Gallery, Stonehenge Gallery, Art Intersection, ZIA Gallery, Photo Méthode Gallery, among other art galleries; Kimberly has also shown in Barcelona, Ireland, as well as virtually at The Louvre.
Schneider’s photograms recently placed Honorable Mention via LA Photo Curator’s Surrealism competition, as well as Honorable Mention in the 18th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards, Runner Up (to the Series Winner) in the 17th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards, 3rd Place in the 16th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards, Honorable Mention via the (16th) Pollux Awards, and Honorary Spider Fellow (Nominee) via the Black and White Spider Awards.
