Christoph Steger is an artist filmmaker whose work explores the intersections of documentary, animation and experimental film. Incorporating traditional drawing, collage and computer generated images, his films highlight the relationship between reality and its representation through media. His recent pieces are formal investigations into the materiality of digital images.
His work has been shown at the International Documentary Festival Amsterdam, the Ottawa International Animation Festival, Tate Modern London, Arnolfini Bristol, the ClermontÂ-Ferrand Short Film Festival and numerous other international film festivals and was screened on television in the United Kingdom and Europe. He received commissions from the Arts Council England and Channel Four TV. Recent video installations have been exhibited at the H&R Block Art Space in Kansas City.
Christoph has worked on a wide range of cultural projects for BBC, Channel Four, Amnesty International, the Arts Council England and FACT Liverpool.
Christoph holds a BA degree in Visual Communication from the Hochschule RheinMain in Wiesbaden, Germany. He received a scholarship for postgraduate studies in art and design from the DAAD and went on to earn an MA in Animation from the Royal College of Art in London.
