Christopher Schroeder is a contemporary photographer whose work oscillates between documentary and artistic photography dedicated to dystopian and utopian humankind experiences.
His photographs are characterized by a meditative silence, deep melancholy and poetry that can be found in moments of loneliness or being in transit.
He has visited about 50 countries on more than 100 individual travels, where the majority of his work has been created over a period of 25 years.
Christopher was born in 1979 and has lived in Hamburg, Munich, Beijing, and now lives at the lake Ammersee in southern Bavaria, while spending time in France each year.
Additionally, he surfs, participated in meditation silence retreats in Indonesia and Norway and regularly practices yoga. These aspects strongly influence his photographic work too.
Christopher completed a course in documentary photography at the University of the Arts London. Besides photography, he is also dedicated to visual arts and writing. He studied painting at a private art school in Nuremberg and is currently an enrolled student at the art academy of South Tirol in Italy.
