Works
After training as a landscape gardener, Claudia Reh studied landscape architecture at the Technical University of Dresden from 1990 to 1996 and graduated with a diplom.

In addition to her work as a landscape architect, she first began as a visual artist with works on canvas and paper, lithography, objects, installations and animated films, before she concentrated on working with high-intensity overhead projectors for light projections and live paintings from 2006. During this time she developed the label Echtzeitlicht, under which she works with light installations and live painting performances, mainly in public space. Since 2012 she has regularly taken part in international light festivals.

She is involved in the development of plays with light performances (at LOFFT Leipzig and the Societaetstheater Dresden, among others). Since 2009 she has also been working on animation and documentaries. From 2014 to 2017 she studied documentary film directing at filmArche in Berlin.

Claudia Reh lives in Dresden, Germany.
