Christopher Schroeder is a contemporary photographer whose work oscillates between documentary and artistic photography. His photographs are characterized by a meditative silence and the human experiences and emotions when being in loneliness exposed to nature.
His photographs are characterized by a meditative silence, deep melancholy and poetry that can be found in moments of loneliness or being in transit.
Christopher was born in 1979 and lives at the lake Ammersee in Southern Bavaria. Previously he has lived in Hamburg, Munich and Beijing. He spends a couple of weeks in France each year to photograph and to paint.
Additionally, he surfs, participated in meditation silence retreats in Indonesia and Norway and regularly practices yoga. These aspects strongly influence his photographic work too.
