About
Michel Fleißner (*1989) is a designer and photographer based in Leipzig. His creative work is rooted in a deep curiosity that spans a wide range of topics, manifesting in three key areas. PHOTOGRAPHY is and will forever be his foundation, VISUAL COMMUNICATION his trained profession, while DESIGN RESEARCH became an outlet for theoretical questions and practical experiments – all three complementing his holistic approach.
His work engages with social change, urban development, and environmental responsibility, balancing theory and practice. Connecting everyday observations with global interconnections, he examines human behaviour and its corresponding environment through design. His experimental approach blends order and chaos, function and emotion, bridging digital and physical realms.
After training as a Design Assistant, he earned a Bachelor's in Integrated Design at Anhalt University, Dessau and a Master's in Design Studies at Burg Giebichenstein, Halle (Saale). An exchange at the Cleveland Institute of Art and an internship at Serviceplan Berlin broadened his perspective. He's currently working as an Art Director at PitchThis.! in Leipzig.
