Hito Steyerl’s work pushes the boundary of traditional video, often obscuring what is real beneath many layers of metaphors and satirical humor. Steyerl even went so far as to refer to her piece, ''Red Alert'', as "the outer limit of video"<ref name=":1">{{Citation|last=dmovies.net|title=Hito Steyerl, interview at Documenta 12|date=2013-06-12|url=https://vimeo.com/68195540|accessdate=2017-03-29}}</ref> which consisted of three monitors playing a video of pure red, representing ''Lovely Andrea'', as well as symbolizing the extreme danger and lust that had become a normality.

Her work concerns topics of [[militarization]], surveillance [[Human migration|migration]], the role of [[Mass media|media]] in [[globalization]], and the dissemination of images and the [[culture]] surrounding. Steyerl has pushed both the role and the label of [[fine art]]ist, demonstrated through her tendencies and interests in engaging the presentational context of [[art]]. Her work is developed from research, interviews, and the collection of found images, culminating in pedagogically oriented work in the realm of forensic documentaries and dream-like montages.

In recent years, Steyerl's work has expanded to confront the status of images in an increasingly digital world, institutions (including museums), networks, and labor. Steyerl employs increasingly sophisticated approaches to editing, digital graphics, and video installation architecture.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.icaboston.org/art/hito-steyerl/liquidity-inc|title=Liquidity Inc. {{!}} icaboston.org|website=www.icaboston.org|access-date=2019-03-23}}</ref>

== Videos ==

=== ''How Not To Be Seen: A Fucking Didactic Educational .MOV File'' ===
15:52 minutes

In 2013 Steyerl released her video ''How Not to Be Seen'', presenting five lessons in invisibility. These lessons include how to 1. Make something invisible for a camera, 2. Be invisible in plain sight, 3. Become invisible by becoming a picture, 4. Be invisible by disappearing, and 5. Become invisible by merging into a world made of pictures. Many of these methods may seem impossible. ''How Not to Be Seen'' is a satirical take on instructional films.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.moma.org/learn/moma_learning/hito-steyerl-how-not-to-be-seen-a-fucking-didactic-educational-mov-file-2013/|title=MoMA {{!}} Hito Steyerl. How Not to Be Seen: A Fucking Didactic Educational .MOV File. 2013|website=www.moma.org|access-date=2019-03-23}}</ref> Much of the video also deals with surveillance and digital imagery: for example, figures in all black dance around as "pixels," and aerial photography features frequently. Thus, ''How Not to be Seen'' becomes a tutorial for invisibility in an age of intense hypersurveillance. 

=== ''Liquidity, Inc.'' ===
30:00 minutes

''Liquidity, Inc.,'' (from 2014) consists of a video and a seating/backdrop installation. The video includes interviews with Jason Wood, a financial-advisor-turned-MMA-fighter, mesmerizing clips of ocean waves, and mock-weather reports from characters in balaclavas. As these visuals swirl around, a metaphor forms between water and images/money/trend in the digital age.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.icaboston.org/art/hito-steyerl/liquidity-inc|title=Liquidity Inc. {{!}} icaboston.org|website=www.icaboston.org|access-date=2019-05-02}}</ref> 
<br />

=== ''Factory of the Sun'' ===
''Factory of the Sun,'' like ''Liquidity, Inc.'' deals with finance. In this video, which debuted at the 2015 Venice Biennial, clip art people swarm and create "artificial sunshine" for a bank. The video utilizes light, sunshine, and warmth as motifs as it explores surveillance and mega-finance.

==Awards==
In 2010 Steyerl was awarded with the NEW:VISION Award at the [[Copenhagen International Documentary Festival]] for her film ''In Free Fall''.<ref>Knegt, Peter. [http://www.indiewire.com/article/thinking_outside_the_doc_box_8_reasons_why_cph_dox "Thinking Outside the Doc Box"], Indiewire, Retrieved 10 August 2014.</ref> In 2015 Steyerl won the inaugural EYE Prize, a collaboration between [[EYE Film Institute Netherlands]] and the Paddy & Joan Leigh Fermor Arts Fund. The aim of the award is to support and promote an artist or filmmaker who have made outstanding contributions to their field.<ref>{{cite web|title=Hito Steyerl wins the inaugural EYE Prize|url=http://www.e-flux.com/announcements/hito-steyerl-wins-the-inaugural-eye-prize/|website=e-flux|publisher=e-flux|accessdate=9 September 2015}}</ref>
