Christian Wright

Newcastle & Gateshead

I'm a digital media artist, primarily working with video games to create narrative video works exploring online culture and community.

Christian Wright (b. 1993, Newcastle upon Tyne) is a digital media artist working with video games and animated assets to blend cinematic and machinima visual languages. Through this frame, he looks at how the boundaries of normal play are stretched by the performative actions of players themselves. Whether it be the intimate physical interactions of online multiplayer, the choreographed quest for perfection of speedrunning, or the mimetic act of digital cosplay within
character creators, Christian places community driven gestures at the forefront.

A mesh of bodies from a figure in medieval armour, clipping into each other against a black background.
Still from BODY LANGUAGE (2022)
Two figures face each other in a medium closeup. They both are facing each other down with their arms crossed. Energy is radiating from both of them in bright radiant yellows and greens, which forms into facsimile's of their characters. These energy-based forms have begun to swing blows at one another while the two characters stand motionless.

Two figures are facing each other in the centre of a wide frame, they stand atop a long bridge built with weathered white marble. One figure is clad in medieval armour while the other, a purple skinned man, is wearing rags. The sky is twisted with blood red swirls, as if hell had been opened up in the heavens.
Still from BODY LANGUAGE (2022)
Two figures are framed in a cathedral. The right hand figure is a purple skinned man wearing rags, he's lying flat with his back to the floor. The Left hand figure, clad in medieval armour is swinging a sword down upon the purple skinned man with all of their might.
Still from BODY LANGUAGE (2022)
The giant looming figure of a purple man eclipses the space behind a figure in medieval armour. The purple skinned man is filled with ire, his eyes beaming red with hatred as energy flows off of him in a purple halo.
