1999, Lives and works in Priego de Córdoba, España.
Fran Baena (Priego de Córdoba, 1999) connects a critical, ironic, and narrative revision of images as they transition from the digital to the physical medium. Through appropriationism, memes, and poor images, he seeks to understand the social issues revealed by the seemingly banal images consumed on the web, endowing them with a new aura and highlighting a serious political perspective.
