Christopher Schroeder is a photographer whose work oscillates between documentary and artistic photography that is dedicated to dystopian and utopian prospects of the overall humankind experience.
His photographs are characterized by a meditative silence and a deep melancholy and poetry that lies in the momentum of loneliness or being in transit.
Christopher visited about 50 countries on more than 100 individual travels, where the major portion of his work has been created over a period of roughly 20 years.
He was born in 1979 and lives/ lived in Hamburg, Munich and Beijing while he spends time in Paris every year.
Christopher holds a master in engineering & economics and passed the Documentary Photography course at the University of the Arts London.
Beyond that he participated in several meditation silent retreats, e.g. in Indonesia and Norway, and practices meditation and Yoga. These aspects strongly influence his photographic work too.
