Biography
Jon Rafman (born 1981) is an artist, filmmaker, and essayist. His work centers around the emotional, social and existential impact of technology on contemporary life. His artwork has gained international attention and was exhibited in 2015 at Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal. He is widely known for exhibiting found images from Google Street View in his online artwork 9-Eyes (2009-ongoing).
