About Us

Phebe Schmidt is a Melbourne-based photographer who investigates ideas about self, constructed and imagined, through fictional characters’ absurdist roleplaying intermeshed with decontexualised objects. Through this experimentation she seeks to understand contemporary anxieties associated with authenticity and methods of “fitting in” that can exacerbate an emotionally charged alienation from self. Schmidt has exhibited in both solo and group shows nationally and internationally.
