Counterfeit Poast: Jon Rafman: Spazio Maiocchi, Milan

Famously concerned with the ways technology has affected human society and the way human society has, in turn, used technology to reflect the ways it has changed, Jon Rafman has also explored the sublime, the uncanny, the ingenuity of human creativity, and the changing role of the artist.

His latest video work, Counterfeit Poast (2022), focuses on nostalgia, youth, and false memories, as well as isolation and the alienation of individuals from society, tapping the creative potential of machine learning and continuing his longstanding practice of both applying the latest digital technologies and analyzing their impact on everyday life.
