An accomplished Sydney based Photomedia artist. Her visual arts practise offering a
distinctly sexual and playful version of fashion, film still and beauty photography.
In her work Schnellhaus is concerned with sexualisation, appropriation, voyeurism,
censorship, pin ups and portraiture.
Schnellhaus incorporates her conceptual concerns to modern themes to produce clever,
entertaining and charged contemporary photography, her styles ranging from the
snapshot aesthetic to the highly stylised.

I live to make images. I command the camera to make images that are a careful construction of premeditated imagery, visual vignettes filled with symbols, plots, props and visual puns, as well as real people and events captured to entertain.
My visual arts practise offers a distinctly sexual and playful version of fashion, film still and beauty photography and I have tapped all these genres for creating Paperback.
As an art student I was challenged about my representation of women in my images, so as an artist I wanted to make informed decisions. This shifted lot of my conceptual concerns towards sexualisation, feminism, objectification, appropriation, voyeurism, censorship, pin ups and portraiture.
In my photographs I incorporate my conceptual concerns to modern themes to produce clever, entertaining and charged contemporary photography, my styles ranging from the snapshot aesthetic to the highly stylised.
I began making Paperback in 2009 and have exhibited my artworks in Sydney, Melbourne & New York. I released my first Artists Book in February 2010 under the title Paperback 2010 and it is sold in Brooklyn NY & accompanies the 35 C-type print artworks for exhibition.
