Sascha Pohflepp is a German-born artist, designer and writer whose work has been known to probe the role of technology in our efforts to understand and influence our environment. His interest extends across both historical aspects and visions of the future and his practice often involves collaboration with other artists and scientists.[1]

Pohflepp has created work on the subjects of synthetic biology, geo-engineering and space exploration, and has been credited with extending the framework of Critical design into the realm of elaborate Counterfactuals and other modes of narrative.[2]
